Research direction

Start by reproducing the report with hostapd_cli all_sta on the current kernel and compare it with the 2021-05-07 version. Trace how station signal information is reported and identify why it becomes 0; done means the command reports the correct signal value on the Raspberry Pi 4.

Description

I upgraded the Raspberry Pi to the latest kernel. When I get all the client information through the command "hostapd_cli all_sta", the signal is always 0, which is good in the 2021-05-07 version.
