I don't see any error?

# iw phy phy0 set name falafel
# iw phy falafel set name guacamole
# iw phy guacamole set name phy1
command failed: Invalid argument (-22)
# iw phy guacamole set name phy0

where I will get in iw event:

$ iw event
wiphy rename: phy #0 to falafel
wiphy rename: phy #0 to guacamole
wiphy rename: phy #0 to phy0

were you expecting the old name, rather than the index?
