OK, let me start with a set of basic questions.
What device do you have (brand + model or picture on ebay please;))?
What's the device ID?
What platform are you working on?
Is this error persistent or a one-time thing?
Does the vendor driver work with your device?
Can you also show content of
/sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy*/mt76/eeprom_param
?

Firmware clearly died somewhere between switch to channel 1 and to
channel 2... I made some changes to the FW loading routine, I will try
to check the traces later today to confirm that I didn't break anything.

Don't think so. It's just for compatibility with vendor driver,
they warn too. All new devices have EEPROM ver == 0x0d though. I plan
to ask MediaTek about it in a week or two (Chinese New Year) and
remove the warning.
