I am able to reproduce this locally on an imx6dl-pico-pi board with a
QCA9377 SDIO chip
running kernel 5.15-rc1.

The QCA9377 operates in STA mode.
Simply doing "ssh user@192.168.0.1" causes:
[ 55.824159] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to transmit packet, dropping: -12

[ 55.919887] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to push frame: -12
and it is not possible to connect via ssh to the other machine.
Changing the MTU size to 1486:
# ifconfig wlan0 mtu 1486
and trying the ssh connection again, it is possible to connect to the
other machine.
Any logs I should capture to help to analyze this problem?
Thanks
