I have a bit of a problem with this patch...

You're supposed to register your hw modes before registering the hw,
that is no longer the case after this patch!

That's actually totally killing my cfg80211 rate API patch because that
complains if the bands in the registered hw/wiphy aren't assigned
properly.

Can you call *_init_geos() before registering the hw, i.e. before
initialising the firmware?
