There are out-of-tree patches for ath9k (at least) that allow overriding the

Any chance something like that could make it upstream if it were dependent
on CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS?

(We recently got a batch of wpea-127n NICs with country-code of TW, which
reminded me of this problem).

I think it would be reasonable, but note Adrian's points. We likely
would need then only to be able to change regulatory domains for only
regulatory domains that match the CTLs programmed in. I'll also note
that the default CTL is actually a high value rather than no
transmit...

How do I get this information?  What is a CTL anyway?

Thanks,
Ben
