Well, in the meantime, you can load the module with swcrypto=1, this
will make things work

This might be because your AP does group key rekeying. I just checked
with a 1250 Cisco AP, group key rekeying works (I configured the AP to
do rekeying every 15 seconds...) This might also be because the AP
implements the rekeying in a funny way (in terms of key indeces), that
iwlwifi doesn't know how to deal with (just thinking aloud).

Please send your wpa_supp conf file over.
Please try to disable the group key rekeying just to see what happens....
