Yes, this detail of information was conveyed to me at OLS by Guy. This is why we decided to add support for letting the driver not pass an alpha2 but to just build the regulatory domain structure itself and pass it. I even provided an example of how to do this in the Documentation/networking/regulatory.txt and tested it myself. Essentially this was added with your drivers in mind :) Let me know if you run into any issues.
