I just tested it with a IPQ4019 with the (10.4-)3.2.1-00050 image. And I see a
similar problem with it. But the AP was not actually active (device was in AP
mode but no channel was set and it didn't beacon). So we end up again with an
incomplete initialized AP but hostapd was running.
I've simply disabled the LEDE wifi stuff and ran the attached autostart.sh
manually. This seemed to work fine. This is rather odd because the same
configuration for wpa_supplicant and hostapd was used. It also works fine with
the normal LEDE setup scripts when encryption on the mesh device is disabled
and it also works fine with ath9k.
With the LEDE scripts/netifd, hostapd thought that the AP went up:

iw dev didn't think so:
Interface wlan0-1
ifindex 13
wdev 0x5
addr ac:86:74:00:0e:35
type AP
txpower 30.00 dBm
Interestingly, it sometimes (randomly) started to work when the AP interface
was switched to psk2 for encryption instead of using an unencrypted AP.
Right now, it looks like an odd timing problem. Has someone else a good idea
what to test?
Btw. we never received any (10.4-)3.2 based firmware for QCA988X from QCA. But
I am also not sure if I find time to retest it again with QCA988x.
