During the initial WMI exchange, the firmware updates the
hardware-supported start and end frequencies in the
ath12k_wmi_hal_reg_capabilities_ext_arg structure. These frequencies,
being hardware-supported, may not always align with the current
regulatory operating frequencies. When operating as multiple grouped
hardwares under a single wiphy, the driver advertises these values
directly to the upper layer in the per-radio frequency range,
which can be misleading.
The frequency range displayed above is incorrect because the driver
directly advertises the hardware-supported values to the upper layer.
The driver is aware of the current operating regulatory rules, and
hence it can use this information to determine the final operating
start and end frequencies.
To resolve this issue, add support to store the start and end
frequencies received during the regulatory update event.
Then, intersect these with the hardware-supported start and
end frequencies, and finally, advertise the intersected values to the
upper layer.
