I was told that 4.4.1 firmare should have a fix for this. Please let me
know if you can confirm that and then I'll update the firmware in
linux-firmware.

Yes, WPA rekey is initiated periodically by the AP. Some APs have a
setting in UI to configure the period but not all. But don't bother to
changing WPA rekeying time that as I'm optimistic that 4.4.1 branch has
a fix for your issue.
