ath10k: firmware crash after setting promiscous mode

["Jose Núñez-Martínez (CTTC)"]

Hi all,
I'm trying to use an ath10k in IBSS mode with 2 wireless cards based on 
qca988x . I'd like to be able to put the wireless cards in promiscuous 
mode (ifconfig wlanX promisc). When I put the wireless cards in 
promiscuous mode, the firmware crashes. Has anyone tried this?

Kernel is 4.1 and  firmware is 999.999.0.636. Please find below the 
ath10k crash info:
