SWBA errors and no ssid

Hello,

We are seeking for expert opinions on "SWBA errors" and any possible
workarounds. If we run AP+client mode, and the client scans for an
nonexistent ssid, then "SWBA errors" happen easily. From this point
on, the ssid of the AP is no longer visible. We use kernel 3.14.28,
Qualcomm firmware 10.1.167.3-1, and WLE900VX. Qualcomm firmware
999.999.0.636 has the same problem except that it does not report
"SWBA errors". Is it possible that we can fix this problem by porting
some patches?
