Hi Kalle,
I have found the reason.
I will send new version to fix it.
It is because commit c0b0d2e87d91ce283c8766b4b3c2ec9ac90ebf96 (ath11k:
Increment pending_mgmt_tx count before tx send invoke) which commit at
Nov 15 11:25:52 2021.
And my rebase is auto merged by git, then it inc twice for
num_pending_mgmt_tx.

In ath11k, tx of management packet is doing in a work queue. Sometimes
the workqueue does not finish tx immediately, then it lead after the
next
step of vdev delete finished, it start to send the management packet to
firmware and lead firmware crash.
ieee80211_set_disassoc have logic of ieee80211_flush_queues after it
send_deauth_disassoc to ath11k, its purpose is make sure the deauth
was actually sent, so it need to change ath11k to match the purpose
of mac80211.
To address these issue wait for tx mgmt and tx data packets.
