I spent a bit more time tinkering further with debug=0x5, forgetting
that I had left your last diagnostic patch applied. Based upon when the
beacon output disappears in the logs (after updating the power
registers), it does seem likely that is a power-related problem.
FWIW I just tried a quick test where I commented out the entire
rtl92c_dm_txpower_tracking_callback_thermalmeter() function to make it a
nop, and that didn't seem to make any difference...
Aha! The following diff to remove the call to rtl92c_dm_diginit() keeps
me associated to the AP:

However, dhclient still takes a very long time get an IP address and the
connection seems extremely lossy, much like it was when I could get a
connection before. Perhaps there are two different bugs here, one for
the association and one for the data loss?
ATB,
