Is use_cfg_chains really necessary here? Is setting tx/rx chainmask to
0x0 make any sense at all? Shouldn't we deny it or make it fallback to
the supported tx/rx chainmask values?
I was thinking we should register with supported values, instead of
configured values. That is the intention of the code. In case we
ever re-register after user has configured the system, this should
retain that functionality. If it is impossible to re-register the
wiphy, then this extra use_cfg_chains logic could go away.
On startup, before user ever configures anything (and most users never will),
the cfg-tx-chainmask is 0, so it would stay with chip's defaults.
Thanks,
