Stephen, David, does 0x49 map to JP for zd1211 ? Are there other ones?
Here is our list so far:

#define ZD_REGDOMAIN_FCC        0x10
#define ZD_REGDOMAIN_IC         0x20
#define ZD_REGDOMAIN_ETSI       0x30
#define ZD_REGDOMAIN_SPAIN      0x31
#define ZD_REGDOMAIN_FRANCE     0x32
#define ZD_REGDOMAIN_JAPAN_ADD  0x40
#define ZD_REGDOMAIN_JAPAN      0x41

This is what they map to:

static struct zd_reg_alpha2_map reg_alpha2_map[] = {
        { ZD_REGDOMAIN_FCC, "US" },
        { ZD_REGDOMAIN_IC, "CA" },
        { ZD_REGDOMAIN_ETSI, "DE" }, /* Generic ETSI, use most restrictive */
        { ZD_REGDOMAIN_JAPAN, "JP" },
        { ZD_REGDOMAIN_JAPAN_ADD, "JP" },
        { ZD_REGDOMAIN_SPAIN, "ES" },
        { ZD_REGDOMAIN_FRANCE, "FR" },
};

Kouhei, if no regulatory domain is found, instead we should world
roam, we cannot allow letting the user change regulatory domains at
their whim. We can, however let them choose one to help compliance,
but you can only help compliance once you know your actual regulatory
domain.
