3.13.11-ckt15 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Arik Nemtsov <arik at wizery.com>
commit 34f05f543f02350e920bddb7660ffdd4697aaf60 upstream.
In the already-set and intersect case of a driver-hint, the previous
wiphy regdomain was not freed before being reset with a copy of the
cfg80211 regdomain.
