Is use_cfg_chains really necessary here? Is setting tx/rx chainmask to
0x0 make any sense at all? Shouldn't we deny it or make it fallback to
the supported tx/rx chainmask values?

I was thinking we should register with supported values, instead of
configured values.  That is the intention of the code.  In case we
ever re-register after user has configured the system, this should
retain that functionality.  If it is impossible to re-register the
wiphy, then this extra use_cfg_chains logic could go away.

On startup, before user ever configures anything (and most users never will),
the cfg-tx-chainmask is 0, so it would stay with chip's defaults.

Thanks,
Ben
