Thanks for the report. So the broken commit is:

f019f4dff2e4 wifi: ath11k: support 2 station interfaces

This went into v6.9-rc1 so I'm guessing that WCN6750 support will be
fully broken in v6.9? Not good. And most likely Linus will release v6.9
on Sunday so it's too late to get a fix included in the final release.

Carl, can you fix this ASAP? Or should we just revert the broken
commits?

Adding this to our regression tracking:

#regzbot introduced: f019f4dff2e4 ^
#regzbot title: ath11k: WCN6750 firmware crashes during initialisation
