Activating Hotspot/AP 88W8997 with Android 11

Hello,

While integrating Android HAL for Android 11 with 88W8997 PCIE-USB driver. I cannot activate the Hotspot. The STA works fine though.

Whenever I try to enable the AP/Hotspot via Android GUI, the kernel give this messages. And the AP cannot be activated. Could anyone give some hints to solve this?

evk_8mq:/ # [ 59.607447] init: starting service 'hostapd'...
