[RFC 03/07] compat-wireless: Enable changing regulatory domain

["Dmitry Tarnyagin" <abi.dmitryt@xxxxxxxxx>]

From: Johan Lilje <johan.lilje@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Tue, 2 Aug 2011 09:21:49 +0200

If compat-wireless code is compiled into the kernel,
first request regulatory hint fails to return since
userspace is not ready yet.
Added timeout mechanism to remove old pending requests.
