This is what I am doing.

My patch by means of a parameter allows to come back to the original
interface combination (before f019f4dff2e4 and not the current one that
you comment), so as I commented, this is the interface combination that 
I am finally using to setup the two APs:
# iw list | grep -A4 "valid interface combinations:"
 	valid interface combinations:
 		 * #{ managed } <= 1, #{ AP, P2P-client, P2P-GO } <= 16, #{ P2P-device } <= 1,
 		   total <= 16, #channels <= 1, STA/AP BI must match, radar detect widths: { 20 MHz (no HT), 20 MHz, 40 MHz, 80 MHz }
 
 	HT Capability overrides:
And I repeat that with that, my setup is working (no error log).

Ok, but as I commented this is what I am doing.
Just to clarify, only with your proposed interface combination I am getting
problems with a 3rd managed type interface.

That is great.

Ok, at this point, as I need my setup, in order to allow me to debug and
get the differences, could you share how you are configuring the two APs to
test and debug here?

Thanks
