It looks like those calls were added in mid-June.
I think mid-june sounds about right. We never observed the warning when
changes to use regulatory infrastructure were tested/reviewed. Should
this precondition be mentioned in cfg80211.h?

Diving in further it seems brcmsmac can not grab the cfg80211_mutex. So
another solution is needed.
