staging: rtl8723bs: fix wireless regulatory API misuse
This code ends up calling wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(), for which we document that it should be called before wiphy_register(). This driver doesn't do that, but calls it from ndo_open() with the RTNL held, which caused deadlocks. Since the driver just registers static regdomain data and then the notifier applies the channel changes if any, there's no reason for it to call this in ndo_open(), move it earlier to fix the deadlock.
