Please don't top-post.

It's almost certainly related to the redpine driver, but apparently not
using the upstream "rsi" driver ... you're in the wrong place here.

I'll note that the driver should probably be converted to cfg80211
instead of having its own wext handling (which I'd think is causing this
issue)
