+        This option enables support for relaxation of the NO_IR flag for
+        situations that certain regulatory bodies have provided clarifications
+        on how relaxation can occur. This feature has an inherent dependency on
+        userspace features which must have been properly tested and as such is
+        not enabled by default.
+
+        A relaxation feature example is allowing the operation of a P2P group
+        owner (GO) on channels marked with NO_IR if there is an additional BSS
+        interface which associated to an AP which userspace assumes or confirms
+        to be an authorized master, i.e., with radar detection support and DFS
+        capabilities. However, note that in order to not create daisy chain
+        scenarios, this relaxation is not allowed in cases that the BSS client
+        is associated to P2P GO and in addition the P2P GO instantiated on
+        a channel due to this relaxation should not allow connection from
+        non P2P clients.
+
+        The regulatory core will apply these relaxations only for drivers that
+        support this feature by declaring the appropriate channel flags and
+        capabilities in their registration flow.
