+Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: don't preset all channels as disabled
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+During init we take care of regulatory stuff by disabling all
+unavailable channels (see brcmf_construct_chaninfo) so this predisabling
+them is not really required (and this patch won't change any behavior).
+It will on the other hand allow more detailed runtime control over
+channels which is the main reason for this change.
