Subject: [PATCH] wireless: brcmfmac: cfg80211: Fix check for ISO3166 code

The commit "regulatory: add NUL to request alpha2" increases the length of
alpha2 to 3. This causes a regression on brcmfmac, because
brcmf_cfg80211_reg_notifier() expect valid ISO3166 codes in the complete
array. So fix this accordingly.

Arend, the first release for 657308f73e67 is v4.16-rc3 so should this go
to v4.16 as well?

And "wireless:" in the title is useless, I can remove that.

Yeah, taking commit id from linux-next is not always safe. It depends on
the maintainer as some people never rebase and some do it quite often.
But in this case commit 657308f73e67 ("regulatory: add NUL to request
alpha2") is already in Linus' tree so the commit id won't change
anymore.
