On at least one forum, I have seen the recommendation that a user set their regulatory domain by creating the file /etc/modprobe.d/cfg80211 with the contents "ieee80211_regdom=US". That works as long as CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY is set in their .config, but will fail if it is not. Should the module_param statement be moved outside the ifdef CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD...? Setting the module parameter that way might not make any sense, but it surely shouldn't kill wireless.
