DFS region support was added upstream via 8b60b07805
mcgrof at ergon ~/linux (git::master)$ git describe --contains 8b60b07805
v3.3-rc1~182^2~44^2~384
Now, that doesn't mean a driver will have DFS support of course. I'm

There's an issue Krishna reported about internal db now parsing the
new db.txt format properly after the antenna gain removal but a patch

so you may want to debug things a bit further.
