I can only add that I got the same behaviour with my TL-WR902AC just 
ported to ath79 on master (based on 
f19e471f3206d0b5885490e52972085d2da2a10b). In about 20 minutes system 
was unusable - I couldn't fully copy a 4MB sysupgrade image to /tmp.
Branch used to build the image is here: 
https://github.com/Leo-PL/openwrt/commits/tl-wr902ac-v1_ath79

I can offer my help with testing the fixes, as it seems to me that it's 
not the first time I observe this issue, only now I got a device 
affected by it.

With kind regards,
Lech
