Bug Description

Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot always uses Reg-Domain „country 00” (World). A manual change by iw takes no effect.

So I can't use Channel 12 and 13 with some different WiFi Dongles and the other frequency, TX-power and bandwith settings are partially wrong.

Testet with Kernel 3.0.0-12-generic and mainline Kernel 3.1.0-030100rc10-generic (32bit).

Testet WiFi Dongles that use nl80211:
* Realtek rtl8192su/ce/de - modul r8712u/rtl8192ce/rtl8192cu
* TP-Link TL-WN821v3 - modul ath9k_htc
* TP-Link TL-WN822N - modul carl9170
* Atheros AR9285 - modul ath9k

I also tested my own build regulatory.bin with no success. With Ubuntu 10.04 everything works fine.
