I asked about this and indeed qcacld-2.0 has few old mappings. I was told these patches are not current so I dropped them for now: [03/52] ath: Add regulatory mapping for Japan (J56) 2018-03-01 [04/52] ath: Add regulatory mapping for Japan KDDI 2018-03-01 [10/52] ath: Add regulatory mapping for Rwanda 2018-03-01 [14/52] ath: Add regulatory mapping for United States for AP 2018-03-01 [16/52] ath: Add regulatory mapping for APL10_MKKC 2018-03-01 [21/52] ath: Switch APL9_WORLD to 2.4GHz MKK CTL 2018-03-01 [31/52] ath: Map Indonesia to APL2_WORLD 2018-03-01 [33/52] ath: Map Japan to MKK5_MKKA2 2018-03-01 [34/52] ath: Map South Korea to APL10_MKKC 2018-03-01 [35/52] ath: Map Lebanon to APL1_WORLD 2018-03-01 [38/52] ath: Map Mexico to FCC1_WORLD 2018-03-01 [40/52] ath: Map Pakistan to APL1_WORLD 2018-03-01 [45/52] ath: Map Saudi Arabia to FCC2_WORLD 2018-03-01 [47/52] ath: Map Taiwan to APL7_FCCA 2018-03-01 [49/52] ath: Map U.A.E. to ETSI1_WORLD 2018-03-01 [50/52] ath: Map Venezuela to FCC1_WORLD 2018-03-01 [51/52] ath: Map Vietnam to ETSI3_WORLD 2018-03-01 Rest of the patches are now in the pending branch and I'm hoping to apply them soon: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/ath.git/log/?h=pending -- Kalle Valo
