Well, that's just the way the regulatory infrastructure is designed, I suppose that we inform vendors they can program their EEPROM with with 0x8000 as an option to use CTRY_UNITED_STATES. > Is there no CTRY_WORLD? If (regdm & 0x60) then you have a world regualtory domain. Atheros devices have 12 world regulatory domains today. They are all built-in to ath.ko. > Or is 0x8000 US-specific? That's what I believe.
