PTK rekeying bug

Hi,
I have a bug with PTK rekeying, when I set this option in hostapd :
wpa_ptk_rekey, the first PTK handshake goes well at the start of the
connection (AP-STA), but after the rekey (The 4-way EAPOL handshake goes
well), all the packets sent by the STA are truncated of 16 Bytes. For
example with a ping I can see at the reception that all the ICMP packets
have 16 Bytes less, but also the ARP packets.
They are well decrypted by the AP though. At the second rekey, the ptk
handshake doesn't work because the EAPOL packets are truncated, hostapd
says 'frame too short for this IEEE 802.1X packets' and disconnects the STA.
With a 3rd radio I can tell that the packets are truncated also in the
air so it must be a STA problem. With the htt_dump (on the STA) debug
option of ath10k I can tell that the packets are not altered here, the
frames are ok
The problem still exists with latest compat-wireless (2015-12-03) and
latest QCA988X firmware : firmware-5.bin_10.2.4.70.15-2
I am using two compex cards (WLE900VX).
Thanks in advance for the help.
