Not sure what to make of this. The interface comes up without any obvious 
error and then another interface is created by another driver:

[ 7.006441] rtl8xxxu 1-8.3:1.0 wlp0s20f0u8u3: renamed from wlan0

That interface connects:

[ 9.103599] wlp0s20f0u8u3: authenticate with 98:da:c4:af:1f:c2 (local 
address=2e:87:9a:a9:38:66)
[ 9.103605] wlp0s20f0u8u3: send auth to 98:da:c4:af:1f:c2 (try 1/3)
[ 9.109051] wlp0s20f0u8u3: authenticated
[ 9.110202] wlp0s20f0u8u3: associate with 98:da:c4:af:1f:c2 (try 1/3)
[ 9.126945] wlp0s20f0u8u3: RX AssocResp from 98:da:c4:af:1f:c2 
(capab=0x1431 status=0 aid=5)
[ 9.127678] usb 1-8.3: rtl8xxxu_bss_info_changed: HT supported
[ 9.128606] wlp0s20f0u8u3: associated

Is brcmfmac setup to connect to the same access point. There are a lot of 
unknowns here.

Arend
