That's weird I tested all patches for connectivity + iperf, maybe
something else also went on the tree that results such behavior...

1) Are you using NetworkManager ? If so disable it and connect manually.
2) Can you disable encryption on your AP and see if it works without it ?
3) Try and enable/disable hw encryption with nohwcrypt module parameter.
4) What's your signal strength/rate when you connect to the AP ?
