QCA4019 firmware: wrong numChain setting for bmi-board 16+17

Hi,

I've just noticed that the numChain in (ath10k/)QCA4019/hw1.0/board-2.bin is
wrong in the bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=16 and
bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=17 from the linux-firmware and
ath10k-firmware repository. It is 0x4 for a 2x2 device. This was fixed in
the QSDK by commit 171b9607fb8cc694ed469a4e29c91af9d92f2971 [1]. It is not
known to me whether this has an effect when the pre-cal data says that the
device should use numChain 2.

It is also currently unknown if this is actually the correct fieldname
(it is just called numChain_A_0_0 [2] in some text files we got from the
netgear GPL drop [2]). But I am talking about the byte at offset 0x2771.
The only other change in these two boarddata sections is the CRC.

Kind regards,
	Sven
