wl127x - kernel error with dual mode (ap and sta)



Hello, i need your help.
My embedded system use the 3.10.44 kernel and is a powerpc. (We can not update our kernel....)
We currently only had our wlan chip in AP or STA mode. With the firmware Rev 6.3.10.0.133 - wl127x-fw-5-sr.bin. All ok..

Now we wanted to use both at the same time with the firmware Rev 6.5.7.0.42 - wl127x-fw-5-mr.bin. That works so far, but unfortunately there is a kernel error.
If wlan0 is not connected to any AP and a terminal device is still registered on wlan1.

With newer firmware comes the same error...wl127x-fw-5-sr.bin / wl127x-fw-5-mr.bin Single: Rev 6.3.10.0.142 // Multi: Rev 6.5.7.0.50
git.kernel.org/.../linux-firmware.git

Can you help me? What does the error mean?.
