This reverts commit 34202e28fe
We made "34202ee.." because we didn't support custom regulatory rules
at that time. But now we use our own custom regulatory rules, so it
needs to be changed back.
Also, chan->max_power calculations in cfg80211 were broken. Hence we
started using chan->max_reg_power. Now it has got fixed in
following commit.

The simulataneous transmission of both WLAN and BT might cause
increase in power levels. To avoid regulatory violation, WLAN tx
power will be adjusted according to BT power index based on avaliability
of BT scheduling messages. WLAN tx power reduction might affect its
performance. So WLAN tx power is only be lowered when the signal strength
is good enough. Otherwise concurrent tx will be disabled and WLAN uses
it default power levels. Also concurrent tx is disabled whenever WLAN is

Patch fixes warnings like below happened on resume:
WARNING: at net/mac80211/driver-ops.h:12 check_sdata_in_driver+0x32/0x34()
Problem is that in __ieee80211_susped() we remove sdata (i.e wlan0
interface) and then during resume we call usb_unbind_interface() ->
ieee80211_unregister_hw() with sdata removed.
Patch fixes problem by adding .reset_resume calback, hence we do not
unbind usb device on resume. This callback can be the same as normal
.resume callback, sice we do all needed initalization during interface
start, which is performed on resume [ ieee80211_resume() ->
ieee80211_reconfig() -> rt2x00mac_start() -> rt2x00lib_start ].
