[wireless-regdb] [RFC v1 12/12] cfg80211: request for regulatory system data file

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof at suse.com>

With sysdata_file_request_*() helpers in places we
don't need CRDA anymore, we can just request for the
regulatory file we need from within the kernel with
the kernel's configuration preferences for
cryptographic requirements.

-- this patch is incomplete still, it doesn't have
   any optional key preferences yet. This needs
   discussion.
