[PATCH v5] nl80211: reset regdom when reloading regdb

[Finn Behrens <me@xxxxxxxxxx>]

this reloads the regdom when the regulatory db is reloaded.
Without this patch the user had to change the regulatoy domain to a
different, and then reset it to the one the user is in, to have the new
regulatory db take effect

Hi,
I moved the rtnl_unlock into a label, and requested the current domain from inside the lock.
