I don't know the specific commits, however, me and @rmandrad on GitHub
under this PR (https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/4381) tried the
master branch which includes the 9.3.2.12 firmware. Wireless works
fine without any cut-out issues.
We suspect it's the changes on the wireless stack (mac80211) that were
not backported to openwrt-21.02 branch.
