Hi,

I now built stable/14 from source commit 
b90d68c9b28b0a458bdf4a963397817974ed0f90

 > uname -a
 > FreeBSD burton 14.1-STABLE FreeBSD 14.1-STABLE 
stable/14-n269119-b90d68c9b28b GENERIC amd64

which works properly.

Further testing on my end suggests that this isn't the kernel's fault,
probably the pkg upgrade of wpa_supplicant in userspace is the problem.

Regards,
Alain Emilia A. Z.
