The reason are more... this is a sync callback and I can't deal with a async xmit with that. Okay I can solve this to make the channel setting async but... if somebody want channel hoping then the logic for that should be in userspace. We don't have any kernelspace implementation of any protocol which use the channel hoping feature. btw. the wireless implementation forbids multiple interface with different channels.
