Adds new warnings:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/core.c:23:14: warning: symbol 'cryptmode' was not declared. Should it be static?
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath11k/mac.c:46:14: warning: symbol 'ath11k_frame_mode' was not declared. Should it be static?

Please move this to core.h

static unsigned int ath11k_crypto_mode;

module_param_named(crypto_mode, ath11k_crypto_mode, uint, 0644);

Better to move this to core.c so that all module parameters are in one
place.
