Well, I wasn't intending for anything to _ever_ touch orig_flags at
all... I think you're hampered by not being able to simply request a
regdomain from crda outside the normal "apply regdomain" flow, maybe we
should think about that instead? Then ath9k could just request a
regdomain from crda before it even registers its wiphy?
