Not sure what you mean by "with more reassociates"?

In any case, we suspect that there's another underlying issue in
mwifiex, which happens to tickle this problem.

Could you record a full trace with -e cfg80211 for me (and send it
privately, please compress trace.dat e.g. with xz, it compresses really
well)

Thanks,
