Some RTL8821AE devices sold in Great Britain have the country code of
0x25 encoded in their EEPROM. This value is not tested in the routine
that establishes the regulatory info for the chip. The fix is to set
this code to have the same capabilities as the EU countries.

I didn't check the full source, but here you seem to be changing also
the content of ETSI regdomain. The commit log doesn't mention anything
about that so I want to double check that this is really intentionally.

Yes, I did intend to change all of ETSI. It was previously allowing channels appropriate for China and Israel.

I will resubmit with an improved commit message.

Thanks,

Larry
