other info that might help us debug this:

Chain exists of:
  &rdev->wiphy.mtx --> dev_addr_sem --> team->team_lock_key#2

 Possible unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(team->team_lock_key#2);
                               lock(dev_addr_sem);
