In commit 221abd4d478a ("staging: r8188eu: Remove no more necessary definitions and code"), two entries were removed from RTW_ChannelPlanMap[], but not replaced with zeros. The position within this table is important, thus the patch broke systems operating in regulatory domains osted later than entry 0x13 in the table. Unfortunately, the FCC entry comes before that point and most testers did not see this problem.

Is it worth changing that to use designated array initialisers? so: [0x21] = {0x01} /* RT_CHANNEL_DOMAIN_ETS11_NULL */
Then the {0x00} entries can be missed out (or just commented as not used).

Yes, we could save a few bytes but risk getting into trouble aligning with some other array that I have not located. I think it should be left the way it is.
