What is this configuration trying to do? There is no 40 MHz channel
defined with primary channel on 161 and secondary on 165..

And this is furthermore configured to enable 80 MHz VHT? How is that
supposed to work here? What vht_oper_centr_freq_seg0_idx value is used?

And does this actually work in some manner for you with this patch
applied? I cannot reproduce such behavior, i.e., the failure happens
here regardless of whether the patch is applied or not..

Can you please share the full configuration parameters for setting this
channel and a debug log from a case where the patch is applied and
behavior changes to something that could be claimed to be useful?

IMHO, there is not really much hostapd should do with such configuration
apart from potentially rejecting it even before trying to do a 40 MHz
co-ex scan..
