When custom regulatory was set, only the channels setting was updated, but
the regulatory domain was not saved. Fix it by saving it.

Hello,
This patch somehow appears to break ath9k's eeprom hints and restrict it to the
world regulatory domain on v5.12.10.
ath9k calls wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() with its own kind of world
regulatory domain, before it decodes hints from the eeprom and uses
regulatory_hint() to request a specific alpha2.
With this patch, applying the hint fails because wiphy->regd is already set.
If i revert this patch, ath9k works again.
