I'm using compat-wireless-2011-03-03 and when the brcm80211 module

I had a look at the tarball. The warning originates from following WARN_ON call.

if (!have_band) {
	WARN_ON(1);
	return -EINVAL;
}

This would mean that the brcm80211 does not provide band information for 2.4GHz nor 5GHz bands. For the bcm4313 which is what you seem to have the 2.4 GHz band info should be provided. From the trace and log I see no reason why brcm80211 would not fill this info.
