Hi,

I am forwarding the following issue from Gentoo linux to you here.
Please see: https://bugs.gentoo.org/746539

I hope this is the right place to continue with this issue.

This is the summary:

iwd-1.7 was not hit, but 1.8 and 1.9 have been hit by the issue.

The kernel has been bisected down to this commit:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/wireless/iwd.git/commit/?id=b43e915b989dcbb0fa763fb7f256e30fe7426f14
However, it may not be the real cause, maybe only revealing the
issue. Still happening with linux 5.9.1.

In the testbed iwd gets started via systemd (at least here). Note:
Starting the service *after* the boot process manually does *not*
crash. So, currently everything works, as the service gets restarted
after the initial crash.

Last but not least, the output of dmesg:
