+ * wiphy_read_of_freq_limits - read frequency limits from device tree
+ *
+ * @wiphy: the wireless device to get extra limits for
+ *
+ * Some devices may have extra limitations specified in DT. This may be useful
+ * for chipsets that normally support more bands but are limited due to board
+ * design (e.g. by antennas or external power amplifier).
+ *
+ * This function reads info from DT and uses it to *modify* channels (disable
+ * unavailable ones). It's usually a *bad* idea to use it in drivers with
+ * shared channel data as DT limitations are device specific. You should make
+ * sure to call it only if channels in wiphy are copied and can be modified
+ * without affecting other devices.
+ *
+ * As this function access device node it has to be called after set_wiphy_dev.
+ * It also modifies channels so they have to be set first.
+ * If using this helper, call it before wiphy_register().
