This looks like a debug message which should not be logged via
syslog/journal and fill up the disk.
See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2309148
There is an upstream fix available at
https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/commit/?id=c330b5820eefa8e703dbce7278c2a62d9c69166a
Given this log spam is pretty significant, I think this should be fixed
for trixie.
Regards,
Michael
