cfg80211: regulatory: make initialization more robust
Since my change to split out the regulatory init to occur later, any issues during earlier cfg80211_init() or errors during the platform device allocation would lead to crashes later. Make this more robust by checking that the earlier initialization succeeded. Fixes: d7be102f2945 ("cfg80211: initialize regulatory keys/database later") Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
