Not much luck...I was using bad channel in hostapd conf, but when
I fixed that to use proper values for channel 52, it still won't
work because of regulatory, evidently:

[root at ath10k-2220 lanforge]# iw reg get
country 98: DFS-UNSET
	(2402 - 2472 @ 70), (N/A, 20)
	(2457 - 2472 @ 70), (N/A, 20), PASSIVE-SCAN
	(5170 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 17), PASSIVE-SCAN
	(5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 20), DFS, PASSIVE-SCAN
	(5735 - 5835 @ 80), (N/A, 20), PASSIVE-SCAN
	(57240 - 63720 @ 2160), (N/A, 0)

How frustrating!
