[PATCH 1/9] hostapd: Force setting reg domain before hostapd starts

[Michael Tremer <michael.tremer@ipfire.org>]

When the system boots up, it could happen that hostapd didn't come up
the first time:

Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: green0: interface state UNINITIALIZED->COUNTRY_UPDATE
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: ACS: Automatic channel selection started, this may take a bit
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: ACS: No available channels found
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: green0: IEEE 802.11 Configured channel (0) or frequency (0) (secondary_channel=1) not found from the channel list of the current mode (2) IEEE 802.11a
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: green0: IEEE 802.11 Hardware does not support configured channel
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: Could not select hw_mode and channel. (-3)
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: green0: interface state COUNTRY_UPDATE->DISABLED
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: green0: AP-DISABLED
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: green0: interface state DISABLED->DISABLED
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: green0: AP-DISABLED
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: green0: CTRL-EVENT-TERMINATING
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: hostapd_free_hapd_data: Interface green0 wasn't started
Apr 28 15:18:10 ipfire-test hostapd: nl80211: deinit ifname=green0 disabled_11b_rates=0

A second start always was successful. By explicitely setting the reg
domain this problem is being worked around.
