What is this Linux client (WLAN card/driver/etc.)? The debug log from
hostapd seemed to indicate that there were no replies from the client.
It is difficult to say what exactly is causing this based on that
information. Probably the best way to debug this would be to use a
wireless sniffer to capture the packets between the AP and the client
from a failed connection attempt if you happen to have a suitable device
for doing this.
