[wireless-regdb] [PATCH] wireless-regdb: Add back regulatory rules for US

Hello,

We've found that our devices can't seem to operate on certain
frequencies (e.g. 5660MHz) being used by access points like the Apple
Airport Extreme and Asus RT-AC68U. I did a git bisect and found that
31dc1c5eca29d039ac8f26340defe44bd7e497c1 removed that band amongst
others. A more recent [1] FCC source implies that these frequencies
should be usable with DFS.

Does anyone know the source for the commit that removed these frequencies from?

Below is a patch that adds back these frequencies:

wireless-regdb: Add back regulatory rules for US

The FCC approved UNII devices operating in the
5470 - 5725MHz range with radar detection and DFS
capabilities. See the [1] source for details.
