Can you do 'md5sum /lib/firmware/ath11k/QCA6390/hw2.0/*' and send the
output? Currently ath11k does not check the firmware files in any way
and I want to make sure they are not corrupted.

I have:

a101dc90f8e876f39383b60c9da64ec4  amss.bin
d4c912a3501a3694a3f460d13de06d28  m3.bin
4c0781f659d2b7d6bef10a2e3d457728  board-2.bin

Ah, now I noticed that you renamed board-2.bin to board.bin. But you
need to keep the file as board-2.bin, board-2.bin and board.bin are not
compatible. I need to send new instructions with the new board-2.bin
file.
