It appears the issue is related to wfx_set_mfp_ap(). The issue is obvious in this function: memory allocated by ieee80211_beacon_get() is never released. Fixing this leak makes kmemleak happy.

Parece que el problema está relacionado con wfx_set_mfp_ap(). El problema es obvio en esta función: la memoria asignada por ieee80211_beacon_get() nunca se libera. Arreglar esta fuga hace feliz a kmemleak.
