Before this version, I've used WM Firmware Version: ____010000, Build Time: 
20211014150922. This version was not able to connect (and stay connected) to 
6GHz at all (so I've used 2.4GHz/5GHz).

But the old firmware version worked fine as station on 2.4GHz/5GHz with 
runtime-pm/deep-sleep set to 1. And I didn't see these crashes when starting/
stopping wpa_supplicant. But I've just reran it with the new firmware and
it seems like this is not 100% reproducible all the time. But when stopping 
the wpa_supplicant would leak to a crash with the new firmware then was also 
a problem to receive packets (not sure about the TX part).

I also didn't see the crash when using runtime-pm/deep-sleep == 0 and then 
setting up the mon0 interface with the old firmware.

But interestingly, i could also see these crashes when
runtime-pm/deep-sleep == 1 and then starting/stopping wpa_supplicant. Just 
didn't notice it because I've never used this configuration before.
