Rafał Miłecki 188626f17c mac80211: backport cfg80211 support for ieee80211-freq-limit DT property
This property allows specifying extra limits for wireless device in DT.
For a full documentation see upstream commit b330b25eaabd ("dt-bindings:
document common IEEE 802.11 frequency limit property").

Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: support ieee80211-freq-limit DT property
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
This patch adds a helper for reading that new property and applying
limitations of supported channels specified this way.
It is used with devices that normally support a wide wireless band but
in a given config are limited to some part of it (usually due to board
design). For example a dual-band chipset may be able to support one band
only because of used antennas.
It's also common that tri-band routers have separated radios for lower
and higher part of 5 GHz band and it may be impossible to say which is
which without a DT info.

+ * Some devices may have extra limitations specified in DT. This may be useful
+ * for chipsets that normally support more bands but are limited due to board
+ * design (e.g. by antennas or external power amplifier).
+ *
+ * This function reads info from DT and uses it to *modify* channels (disable
+ * unavailable ones). It's usually a *bad* idea to use it in drivers with
+ * shared channel data as DT limitations are device specific. You should make
+ * sure to call it only if channels in wiphy are copied and can be modified
+ * without affecting other devices.
+ *
+ * As this function access device node it has to be called after set_wiphy_dev.
+ * It also modifies channels so they have to be set first.
+ * If using this helper, call it before wiphy_register().
