ath10k otp.bin board.bin firmware.bin art.bin?

[孙建希]

The driver terminates execution in the function
'ath10k_download_cal_data`.  `ath10k_download_cal_data`  try load the
` pre_cal_file` and `cal_file` files via hif.  Since these two files
are not provided , then try to get from `dt, eeprom, otp`.

`pre-cal.bin, cal.bin and otp` are used to calibrate radio?

I'm sure `board.bin` was successfully loaded.

Does `board.bin` only used in `ath10k_download_and_run_otp`?  What is
the relationship between otp and board.bin?
