I'd like to make a small point. If you are using linux-backports-modules
(lbm) because you need a newer wifi driver, the module that regulates
which channels you see is no longer "cfg80211" but "lbm_cw_cfg80211".
Thus, the line that needs to be added to /etc/modprobe.d/options is

options lbm_cw_cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom="EU"

Unloading and reloading the wifi modules works like a charm, no need to
reboot.

By the way, is it a bug that linux-backports-modules doesn't detect the
options appended in /etc/modprobe.d/options and modifies it for the
modules included in that package? I mean, because some slightly
differently named modules are used, I'd expect them to pick the options
applied to the original ones.
