Please do not top post.

The firmware has its own regulatory information (actually the CLM blob 
holds that information) which is independent of the wireless regulatory 
database in the kernel. As such trying to configure country '00' will 
simply fail as it is not known inside CLM blob. The firmware needs a 
country abbreviation *and* a revision. Hence we require a mapping of 
country code to <abbrev,rev> tuple. If that mapping is not in place we 
bail out setting the country in the regulatory notifier.

 From the description below it is not clear what problem is fixed here 
in terms of user experience.

Regards,
Arend
