ath10k firmware crashes in mesh mode on QCA9880

Tested the 10.2.4.70.59-2 firmware and wpa_supplicant running WITHOUT 
encryption and it still crashes. I suspect this means wpa_supplicant is 
setting up the interface incorrectly and/or transmitting a malformed 
packet that is causing the driver to crash.
