This can be just a trivial inline, to simplify some code.
Expose it, and also use it in util.c where it wasn't

Some regulatory bodies doesn't allow IR (initiate radioation) on a
specific subband, but allows it for channels with a bandwidth of 20 MHz.
Add a channel flag that indicates that, and consider it in
cfg80211_reg_check_beaconing.

While on it, fix the kernel doc of enum nl80211_reg_rule_flags and
change it to use BIT().

<title>wifi: cfg80211: skip regulatory for punctured subchannels</title>

<id>9add053591ed9d126b6f071236e33e762c439fa8</id>
<content type='text'>
The kernel performs several regulatory checks for AP mode in
nl80211/cfg80211. These checks include radar detection,
verification of whether the sub-channel is disabled, and
an examination to determine if the channel is a DFS channel
(both DFS usable and DFS available). These checks are
performed across a frequency range, examining each sub-channel.

However, these checks are also performed on subchannels that
have been punctured which should not be examined as they are
not in use.

This leads to the issue where the AP stops because one of
the 20 MHz sub-channels is disabled or radar detected on
the channel, even when the sub-channel is punctured.

To address this issue, add a condition check wherever
regulatory checks exist for AP mode in nl80211/cfg80211.
This check identifies punctured channels and, upon finding
them, skips the regulatory checks for those channels.

On 6 GHz (and also 5 GHz to some degree), only a specific set of center
frequencies should be used depending on the channel bandwidth. Verify
this is the case on 6 GHz. For 5 GHz, we are more accepting as there are
APs that got it wrong historically.

Add a regulatory flag to allow VLP AP operation even on
channels otherwise marked NO_IR, which may be possible
in some regulatory domains/countries.

Note that this requires checking also when the beacon is
changed, since that may change the regulatory power type.

To later introduce an override for VLP APs being allowed despite
NO-IR flags, which is somewhat similar in construction to being
allowed to monitor on disabled channels, refactor the code that
checks channel flags to have not a 'monitor' argument but a set
of 'permitting' flags that permit the operation without checking
for 'prohibited' flags.
