That would require more changes to mark ch_bit_map1/ch_bit_map2 as
__le32 (I think, I don't do much sparse), so I didn't do that.

I've used __set_bit_le when setting reg_ch_conf_pending so no need to
swizzle here; OTOH bitmap_to_arr32 doesn't work here that swizzle
already swaps halfwords.

(Again there's no need to do an LE swizzle because it's done in
wlcore_set_pending_regdomain_ch).

Yup, I forgot to commit that cpu_to_le32 removal.

Yeah, but it is the easiest way to ensure it is the right size as
reg_ch_conf_pending.  The two are related, it makes sense to declare
them the same.
