Larry Finger c72fc90937 rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix 5G failure when EEPROM is incorrectly encoded ... Recently, it has been reported that D-Link DWA-582 cards, which use an RTL8812AE chip are not able to scan for 5G networks. The problems started with kernel 4.2, which is the first version that had commit d10101a603 ("rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix problem with regulatory information"). With this patch, the driver went from setting a default channel plan to using the value derived from EEPROM. Bug reports at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111031 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1279653 are examples of this problem. The problem was solved once I learned that the internal country code was resulting in a regulatory set with only 2.4 GHz channels. With the RTL8821AE chips available to me, the country code was such that both 2.4 and 5 GHz channels are allowed. The fix is to allow both bands even when the EEPROM is incorrectly encoded.
