Public bug reported:

After upgrading Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS from linux 4.4.0-140 to 4.4.0-141 I
noticed that when issuing larger (several GB) downloads over the WiFi
the wireless network hangs and cannot be brought to live again (e. g.
with systemctl restart networking). Rebooting (with and without powering
off) helps, but the problem reappears as soon as you start downloading
within minutes.

So I fear there might be a problem with the latest changes in
ath10k_pci. When booting 4.4.0-140 again (which is still available from
the boot-menu) the problem does not appear. Booting 4.4.0.141 again
let's the problem re-appear. Between boots I powered off the notebook
(Dell XPS13).

Please be kind . this is my first bug report. If I did something wrong
or leave something out please tell me, I'll try to get better.

In parallel I see messages in syslog like this:
