That would mean that the driver should not be built-in, as afaik we
cannot rmmod built-in drivers. Sure, it will work after a reboot, but
this is a bit hacky, agree?

Also, new NVS file needs to be loaded when fcc regulation changes(flying
abroad), so that would mean that the device would be outside of those
until reboot (in case of built-in driver)
