I had some of my own patches in the 3.11 kernel. I tried the vanilla ath kernel from github and it crashes when adding a second station. Can you (or whoever has firmware access) get something resembling a stack trace from the firmware dump to see where it's crashing? Has anyone been able to successfully use more than one station with ath10k so far?
