From 5cf9d60d0e2fdf4310fc4687a6791bb1cdf7fa82 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Georgi Valkov Date: Thu, 27 Aug 2026 20:58:48 +0300 Subject: dt-bindings: net: wireless: add flag marvell,invalid-reg-hint-in-rom WRT3200ACM and WRT32x routers always report a fixed US regulatory domain from the mwifiex ROM, which conflicts with the platform regulatory configuration on units sold outside the US market. For example: - phy0 mwlwifi 5 GHz, hard-coded region 98 EU mapped to FR - phy1 mwlwifi 2.4 GHz, hard-coded region 98 EU mapped to FR - phy2 mwifiex 2.4 and 5 GHz, hard-coded region US When the system boots, it detects a conflict between the user selected region and the radios, e.g. BG FR US, and applies extreme restrictions, preventing phy0 from starting on any DFS channel. phy2 works. Add a device-tree flag, which allows affected devices, where the radio conflicts with the platform to ignore the incorrect regulatory hint in the ROM of the radio, so the platform regulatory domain can be used. This does not allow the user to change the regulatory configuration of any radio. It only allows phy0 to start and operate according to its certified configuration.
