problem AP on PCIe wifi module in qsdk-12.0-ipq60xx-5.4 image on Mango #28

Description

@liviolima80

Good morning,
I have a Mango board with an extra wifi module on PCIe connector. The wifi module is based on ath9k driver and is configure as AP.
Using the old qsdk-11.3-ipq60xx-4.4 image everything worked correctly.

After the upgrade to qsdk-12.0-ipq60xx-5.4, the AP does not work correctly. I can see that the wlan interface receive packets, for example from mobile phones trying to connect to the new AP, but it seems that the module have problem to push out the packets and it seems that the packets remains in output queue. This is the output of iw dev command during the connection phase from a mobile phone to the new AP
