Describe the bug When regulatory domain KR is set, it scans only a limited set of allowed frequency bands, "5745 5765 5785 5805", which is incorrect in terms of the wlan regulation here in Korea.
To reproduce step 1. Open two consoles. On the first console, set regulatory domain to US by issuing "iw reg set US". On the second console, issue "iw event -t". And getting back to the first console, issue "iw dev wlan0 scan" and observe the scanning frequencies shown on the second console. step 2. While preserving the two consoles, set regulatory domain to KR on the first console and observe the scanning frequencies shown on the second console. step 3. Compare the result of step 2 from the one of step 1.
Expected behaviour All 2.4Ghz bands and 5Ghz bands should be able to be scanned for South Korea region as shown at the following wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels.
Actual behaviour Only a limited set of frequency bands, "5745 5765 5785 5805", are scanned.

Additional context As the regulatory domain of Wi-Fi client seems to follow the one of the associated AP, simply changing Wi-Fi country setting could not resolve this issue. I strongly suspect this issue came from the incorrectly configured regulatory domain inside brcmfmac.
