This adds a new regulatory hint to be used when we know all devices have been disconnected and idle. This can happen when we suspend, for instance. When we disconnect we can no longer assume the same regulatory rules learned from a country IE or beacon hints are applicable so restore regulatory settings to an initial state. Since driver hints are cached on the wiphy that called the hint, those hints are not reproduced onto cfg80211 as the wiphy will respect its own wiphy->regd regardless. Signed-off-by: Luis R.
