2389ebbd48 Revert "ath: do not apply broken power limits with ATH_USER_REGD"
This reverts commit 79a768a90f.
Some devices can go over their power limits with this commit, so this
needs to be handled on a case by case basis instead

a8f63a0717 mac80211: update to backports-4.14-rc2
This updates mac80211 to backprots-4.14-rc2.
This was compile and runtime tested with ath9k, ath10k and b43
with multiple stations and ieee80211w and in different scenarios by many
other people.

To create the backports-4.14-rc2-1.tar.xz use this repository:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/backports/backports.git
from tag v4.14-rc2-1

Then run this:
./gentree.py --git-revision v4.14-rc2 --clean  <path to linux repo> ../backports-4.14-rc2-1

This also adapts the ath10k-ct and mt76 driver to the changed cfg80211
APIs and syncs the nl80211.h file in iw with the new version from
backports-4.14-rc2.

79a768a90f ath: do not apply broken power limits with ATH_USER_REGD
If a device uses the default EEPROM code, typically only the main CTLs
are valid, and they do not apply properly when switching to a different
regulatory domain. If the regdomain deviates from the EEPROM one, force
the world roaming regdomain to ensure that power limits are sane

072937888e mac80211: make it work with 3.18.12+
3.18.12 backported 61ada528dea028331e99e8ceaed87c683ad25de2 ("sched/wait:
Provide infrastructure to deal with nested blocking") from 3.19, causing
the following error on load:

[   13.588000] compat: exports duplicate symbol woken_wake_function (owned by kernel)

Fix this by guarding it with a check for 3.18.11 or earlier instead of
3.19.

3cc4fd7370 ath: relax regulatory rules for default regd code
Most AP devices out there do not have a properly programmed regulatory
domain code, which means they are limited to US frequencies by default.

This has been a major annoyance for a long time now. Since no fix for
the manfuacturing process seems to be forthcoming, the only sane option
seems to be to allow users to change the country code in such cases.
