To not break any existing setups (e.g. in case
some devices in the wild already have subsys ids)
if a board specific file isn't found a generic one
is used which is the one which would be used until
now. This guarantees that after upgrading a driver
device will not suddenly stop working due to
now-missing specific board file. If this is the
case a "fallback" string is appended to the info
string when driver boots.
Keep in mind this is distinct from cal-pci-*.bin
files which contain full calibration data and MAC
address. Cal data is aimed at systems where
calibration data is stored out of band, e.g. on
nand flash instead of device EEPROM - an approach
taken by some AP/router vendors.
Board files are more of a template and needs some
bits to be filled in by the OTP program using
device EEPROM contents.
One could argue to map subsystem ids to some board
design codename strings instead of using raw ids
when building the board filename. Using a mapping
however would make it a lot more cumbersome and
time consuming (due to how patches propagate over
various kernel trees) to add support for some new
device board designs. Adding a board file is a lot
quicker and doesn't require recompilation.

ath10k: use MAC clock rate same as FW uses for survey accuracy
WLAN survey data provides several informative values on each channels
such as noise, active time, transmit time, and etc.
Regarding the channel activity time data, it is reported from firmware
in different form which is number of cycles instead of time itself.
Hence host driver converts it to time unit by dividing it by clock rate
that is used at baseband MAC.
Using difference clock rate from that actual HW is using will result in
inaccurate survey data. For instance, channel active time can be reported
with bigger than 150ms even though we set Dwell time to 150ms.
Therefore set the clock rate to 88000 (88 MHz) which is ath10k baseband

ath10k: fix interpretation of cooling device state
Setting the sysfs attribute ends up configuring the duty cycle,
but the interface through which the attribute is exposed
(cooling_device) is for setting the throttle/cooling state. This
is confusing the user. Hence renaming the cooling device interfaces
for better readability.

ath10k: add debugfs entry to configure quiet period
Add support to configure quiet period (in milliseconds) via debugfs.
This is useful to experiment different quiet period values along with
different throttle ratio.
Since the station kickout threshold is also counting software
reries (Default sw count in firmware is 16), increasing the threshold
to try with atleast 20 data frames before kicking out the station.

By default rts protection is enabled in firmware for the second
rateset. Currently ath10k selects RTS profile (only for software
retries), when legacy stations are associated or asked by mac80211.
On congested environment, when AP is running in HT/VHT mode and
there are no legacy clients associated, this will impact the
robustness. Also enabling RTS protection only for second rateset will
not impact performance on clear environment. Fix that.

mac80211: avoid duplicate TX path station lookup
Instead of looking up the destination station twice in the TX path

it when building the header and use it later in the TX path.
To avoid having to look up the station in the many callers, allow
those to pass %NULL which keeps the existing lookup.

In ieee80211_build_hdr(), the station is looked up to build the

mac80211: don't look up destination station twice
There's no need to look up the destination station twice while
building the 802.11 header for a given frame if the frame will
actually be transmitted to the station we initially looked up.
This happens for 4-addr VLAN interfaces and TDLS connections, which
both directly send the frame to the station they looked up, though
in the case of TDLS some station conditions need to be checked.
To avoid that, add a variable indicating that we've looked up the
station that the frame is going to be transmitted to, and avoid the
lookup/flag checking if it already has been done.
In the TDLS case, also move the authorized/wme_sta flag assignment
to the correct place, i.e. only when that station is really used.
Before this change, the new lookup should always have succeeded so
that the potentially erroneous data would be overwritten.

ath10k: protect driver from unsolicited htc ep0 events
Some firmware revisions (tested with qca6174
rm2.0-00088) deliver unsolicited unknown (kind of
garbled) HTC ep0 event to host in some cases.
This issue was mainly observed with both qca988x
and qca6174 being installed on a single host
system. During driver probing if qca6174 booting
sequences were somehow deferred (e.g. by qca988x
implicitly making some resources busy presumably)
the unsolicited event would came around 1s after
ATH10K_HTC_MSG_READY_ID was delivered to host for
qca6174.
The unsolicited event would confuse driver and
cause HTT initialization (and subsequently
driver probing) to fail.
Make the ep0 event processing more robust. The
event will still be caught but instead will
only generate a warning now.

ath10k: strip qos data bit always
NativeWifi tx mode expects QoS Data frames to be
delivered as Data frames with QoS part (e.g. tid)
being delievered out-of-band in fw tx command.
The QoS bit wasn't stripped before submitting to
firmware.
Stripping fixes two known problems:
* qca6174 IOT with some APs, e.g.
Cisco AIR-AP 1252 (which would crash after
ath10k association). Some ath9k APs would
crash as well.
* sniffing own tx frames via radiotap because,
e.g. wireshark was seeing QoS bit set but
since QoS Control was stripped in ath10k it
would parse beginning of LLC/SNAP
>From debugability point of view this removes the
ability to distinguish QoS from non-QoS frames
when sniffing own tx via radiotap. On the other
hand frames can be now parsed correctly without
special software modification.

mac80211: minstrel_ht: fix rounding issue in MCS duration calculation
On very high MCS bitrates, the calculated duration of rates that are
next to each other can be very imprecise, due to the small packet size
used as reference (1200 bytes).
This is most visible in VHT80 nss=2 MCS8/9, for which minstrel shows the
same throughput when the probability is also the same. This leads to a
bad rate selection for such rates.
Fix this issue by introducing an average A-MPDU size factor into the
