I tested this on QCA988X PCI board just to see if there are any
regressions. It crashes immediately during module load, every time, and
bisected that the crashing starts on this patch:

What's odd is that when I added some printks on my own and enabled both
boot and htc debug levels it doesn't crash anymore. After everything
works normally after that, I can start AP mode and connect to it. Is it
a race somewhere?
