wireless: don't publish __regulatory_hint 



This function requires an internal lock to be held, so it cannot
be published to other modules in the kernel.

 * Returns -EALREADY if *a regulatory domain* has already been set. Note that

 * this could be by another driver. It is safe for drivers to continue if

 * -EALREADY is returned, if drivers are not capable of world roaming they

 * should not register more channels than they support. Right now we only

 * support listening to the first driver hint. If the driver is capable

 * of world roaming but wants to respect its own EEPROM mappings for

 * specific regulatory domains it should register the @reg_notifier callback

 * on the &struct wiphy. Returns 0 if the hint went through fine or through an

 * intersection operation. Otherwise a standard error code is returned.
