Okay, the main question here is, did you make any changes in the
wlcore/wl12xx code? As I said, the TX watchdog should *not* be
initialized in PLT mode.

Maybe you could add some prints in the driver to see when the watchdog
timer is set up? Try to add a printk in every place where
wl12xx_rearm_tx_watchdog_locked() is called to see where it is being
armed.

I do have a board, but I *really* don't have the time to set it up and
everything.  Sorry about that...
