I backported out-of-tree ax200 driver from backport-iwlwifi to my
5.4 kernel so that I could run ax200 beside other radios (backports
mac80211 otherwise is incompatible and other drivers will crash).
Always possible that upstream kernel doesn't suffer from exactly this
case, but upstream ax200 is too unstable to even get this far, so...
The ax200 firmware crash often causes the kernel to deadlock due to the
while (sta->sta_state == IEEE80211_STA_AUTHORIZED)
loop in __sta_info_Destroy_part. If sta_info_move_state does not
make progress, then it will loop forever. In my case, sta_info_move_state
fails due to the sdata-in-driver check.
Hello Johannes,
Have any comment on this?
Thanks,
Ben

With this patch, there is safety code to bail out after 1000 tries of
moving the sta state, and also I check for EIO which is returned by
the sdata-in-driver failure case and treat that as success as far as
changing sta state goes.
Console logs look like this in the failure case, and aside from the ax200
radio that went phantom, the rest of the system is usable:
