incorrect netdev->dev_addr error

[Boris Gjenero]

The kernel reports a "Incorrect netdev->dev_addr" error, though BCM4321 WiFi still works. The error started happening after upgrading to Ubuntu 22.10. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1016505 seems relevant. This is the error from the kernel with my MAC address censored:
