There is a bug in at least 10.1 ath10k firmware where the scan machine
cannot send more than 5 or so probe requests due to running out of firmware
management buffers.. Stock firmware is not smart enough to
wait a bit and send them later. To reproduce, use a supplicant file like
this (below). Maybe there is a way to work around it in the driver, but probably
better to just fix the firmware... A quick glance at 10.4 firmware makes
me think the bug is very likely there as well.
Thanks,
Ben
