The patch set called "rtw88: add scan notify to firmware and refine fw_feature check" may have fixed this problem. I've been running commit 6ccdad5a58e18eac6b1335f05f94bf2b36146e00 from lwfinger/rtw88 for 3 days now with no freeze. It was impossible to go more than a few hours without a freeze before these patches.
