Attached is a compressed file containing a 10-minute section of the 
journalctl output.  wpa_supplicant was running with -ddt and without -s, 
so this should contain all of its output.

Initially both wpa_supplicant and NetworkManager were turned off.  The 
log starts at the time when I turned on wpa_supplicant, and a few 
seconds later, turned on NetworkManager.  An INVALID_IE event occurred 
at timestamp 12:03:59.  The output is so voluminous it's hard to see 
what's really happening, however.
