No, because of the shared channel data issue. If this is
unconditionally in wiphy_register() then we can no longer guarantee
that sharing it is acceptable - which it is today under certain
circumstances the driver controls. This would move it out of driver
control, making it never possible to share any more.

Yeah, whatever :)
We can figure that out once we have the mechanisms in place.
