When driver calls wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory I need to already have
limits read from the DT (at least in my current implementation, it may
change, but I need help understanding flow first). As
wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory has to be called before wiphy_register,
I can't read DT so late (in wiphy_register).
