The TODO list for the rtl8723bs driver mentions the conversion of
unusual variable types to the preferred kernel style. Convert the
"power_limit" variable in include/wifi.h from int16_t to s16.

Generally, variables like s16 and s32 should only be used when they
are defined by a hardware or protocol spec.  You should just use
short and int for normal code.

In this case, the rtw_regulatory is never really used.  There are
a few functions which take it as a parameter they aren't used and
we always pass NULL pointers to them.

Cleanup the functions and then delete the whole struct rtw_regulatory
and struct.
