    wireless-regdb: Update regulatory rules for Germany (DE) on 5GHz
    
    In Europe ETSI standardized the used for short range devices
    (SRD) [1] in ETSI EN 300 440-1 [2]. According to this standard
    generic use equipment is allowed to transmit in the frequency
    range form 5725 MHz to 5875 MHz with a maximum output power of 25
    mW e.i.r.p. This generic allocation also allows transmission of
    802.11 devices.
    
    [3] has a list of countries and their status about the
    implementation of the SRD frequency bands. For the 5 GHz band
    this can be seen on page 38 in the paragraph ANNEX 1 and the
    entry Annex j.
    
    Attached is a patch that adds the 5 GHz SRD band to db.txt for
    Germany.
