The obsoletion message tells you what to use instead of search-forward-lax-whitespace, but that doesn't help you because you weren't using this function, you were overriding it (IIUC).

Fortunately, I think you don't need to override anything at all. You can just set search-default-regexp-function to your #'search-whitespace-regexp. IIUC, that should have the same effect.
