Hello I have a USB based ID 148f:3070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870/RT3070 Wireless Adapter, that stops working with recent kernels. It works on kernel 5.1.15 and does not work with 5.2.7 or 5.3.1 (I have not tested other versions). I use it in AP mode. I found this similar bug report https://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=156630037103575&w=2 but that did not have related error messages so I assume this is different? Logs of working kernel 5.1.15-arch1-1-ARCH.
