4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit 1db58529454742f67ebd96e3588315e880b72837 ] reg_process_hint_country_ie() can free regulatory_request and return REG_REQ_ALREADY_SET. We shouldn't use regulatory_request after it's called. KASAN error was observed when this happens.
