From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
The wiphy information is getting very close to being too
much for a typical netlink dump message, and adding the
two radar attributes to a number of channels can push it
over the limit, which means userspace gets no information
at all. Therefore, revert it for now. We're working on a
solution that will allow userspace to request splitting
the information across multiple netlink messages, which
will allow us to add this back.
