Hi Arend Thanks, I will certainly try with brcmfmac if you say so. Currently I am testing hostapd on orange pi zero board running debian jessie and its wlan driver is xradio_wlan and it is working fine. I don't know why raspbian and debian have introduced bcmdhd for WLAN in their distros. I have filed bug on raspbian but received on response yet.
