Kernal bug when client connects to AP on wlan0 in rtl8188cus chip

Kernal 4.19.38-sunxi Ubuntu 18.04.2 ARMBIAN 5.75 stable

Orange Pi Zero board Wifi chip used rtl8188cus

After compiling the driver, I made the wifi interface an AP using hostapd v 2.7 When I try to connect to the AP, the following kernel bug occurs
