Commitc134d1f8c4("ath11k: Handle errors if peer creation fails") completely broke AP mode on QCA6390: kernel: [ 151.230734] ath11k_pci 0000:06:00.0: failed to create peer after vdev start delay: -22 wpa_supplicant[2307]: Failed to set beacon parameters wpa_supplicant[2307]: Interface initialization failed wpa_supplicant[2307]: wlan0: interface state UNINITIALIZED->DISABLED wpa_supplicant[2307]: wlan0: AP-DISABLED wpa_supplicant[2307]: wlan0: Unable to setup interface. wpa_supplicant[2307]: Failed to initialize AP interface This was because commitc134d1f8c4("ath11k: Handle errors if peer creation fails") added error handling for ath11k_peer_create(), which had been failing all along but was unnoticed due to the missing error handling. The actual bug was introduced already in commitaa44b2f3ec("ath11k: start vdev if a bss peer is already created"). ath11k_peer_create() was failing because for AP mode the peer is created already earlier op_add_interface() and we should skip creation here, but the check for modes was wrong. Fixing that makes AP mode work again. This shouldn't affect IPQ8074 nor QCN9074 as they have hw_params.vdev_start_delay disabled.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
