I did set it to "DE" with iw, but wpa_supplicant had a setting country="de". I just fixed that and will soon see if the problem disappears. Still, the warning shouldn't look like a bad kernel bug, but rather an advisory to the user to set something sane. What confuses me even more is that this has been set to DE afterwards: $ dmesg | grep cfg80211:\ Calling\ CRDA cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: de cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: DE cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: DE cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: DE cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: DE cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: DE cfg80211: Calling CRDA to update world regulatory domain cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: DE The AP has been playing with the regdom as well, I lost track of what has been set where in this mess.
