I had some of my own patches in the 3.11 kernel.  I tried the vanilla ath
kernel from github and it crashes when adding a second station.

Can you (or whoever has firmware access) get something resembling a
stack trace from the firmware dump to see where it's crashing?

Has anyone been able to successfully use more than one station with
ath10k so far?

Thanks,
Ben
