This is already indicating a severe problem. I don't know how you end
up in this situation with b43, since that doesn't have any regulatory
magic afaict.

I'm convinced that this comes from reg_check_channels().

The above WARN_ON() already told you that the channel was considered
invalid.

Do you know what channel your AP is on? Perhaps show the output of "iw
wlan0 scan dump" while it's connected (you have 60 seconds :P)

Can you please show the output of "iw list" and "iw phy0 channels"?
