"ping" packets do not reach to another host on 2.4 GHz WiFi,
while NetworkManager or systemd-networkd connects to SSID of 2.4GHz.
For 5GHz with vc4.ko, NetworkManager does not connect to the SSID of 5GHz,
so the symptom is better with 2.4GHz.
The symptom of 2.4GHz is the same both with vc4 and without vc4.
"iw dev wlan0 info" prints as follows, but ping packets do not reach.
Interface wlan0
ifindex 3
wdev 0x1

wiphy 0
channel 4 (2427 MHz), width: 20 MHz, center1: 2427 MHz
txpower 31.00 dBm
The only usable configuration is WiFi 5GHz connection with module_blacklist=vc4...
