You gave us Reviewed-by, and it's appreciated, but unfortunately we
have to change the API a bit.

It appears we can't take the RTNL from within a driver safely - on
driver unload, we might have a work-item that needs the RTNL pending,
and the driver unload itself already acquires RTNL.
So we'll modify the code a bit to set a wiphy->requested_regd and do
the actual work inside reg_todo.

We'll resubmit shortly.
