[PATCH 2/2] hostapd: set 5 sec timeout for channel list update

Before this patch we have 1 second timeout for
regulatory update. In some cases, specially when
we reload driver modules on some slower platforms
this could take more than 1 second (about 2 second).
This is important specially for DFS case, where we
have to have correct dfs region before we will start
CAC. In other case (unknown DFS region) CAC will fail.
5 seconds should be enough for all cases.
