  [Impact]
  WIFI 6/6E GHz should be enabled/disabled depends on the BIOS setting.
  
  [Fix]
  Realtek provides a patchset to enable this feature
  
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/20231114091359.50664-1-pks...@realtek.com/T/#t
  
  The patchset has been included in linux-next/master
  c212abfbd19f wifi: rtw89: regd: update regulatory map to R65-R44
  b2774a916ab9 wifi: rtw89: regd: handle policy of 6 GHz according to BIOS
  665ecff7dd14 wifi: rtw89: acpi: process 6 GHz band policy from DSM
  
  [Test case]
- Run `iw list` should see something like below
+ Run `iw list` should see the available frequency above 6Ghz, even it's 
disabled
  
  Frequencies:
-                         * 5955 MHz [1] (22.0 dBm) (no IR)
-                         * 5975 MHz [5] (22.0 dBm) (no IR)

-                         * 6095 MHz [29] (22.0 dBm) (no IR)
-                         * 6115 MHz [33] (22.0 dBm) (no IR)
