That would imply that you are trying to configure this to use a 40 MHz
channel. Is that on purpose? Or was this supposed to be
vht_oper_chwidth=1 for a 80 MHz VHT channel?

42 would be the centered frequency center channel number for 36 primary
channel only if this were a 80 MHz channel, so the combination here is
invalid. You would either need to change this to use vht_oper_chwidth=1
or set vht_oper_centr_freq_seg0_idx=0 if you want to use a 40 MHz
channel.
