The problem was found by Larry Finger:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=133702401700614&w=2

The problem is identical to the one for ipw2200 which is already fixed:

This warning appears only if we apply Ben Hutchings' fix
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=132720204412667&w=2
for the bug reported by Cesare Leonardi
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=656813
with cfg80211 warning during device registration
("cfg80211: failed to add phy80211 symlink to netdev!").

We separate device bring up and registration with network stack
to avoid the problem.
