Hi Kalle,

I have tested in my local git, all the above v2 patches only have one 
conflict
between "[v2,2/2] ath11k: add 11d scan offload support"
and "[v2] ath11k: report rssi of each chain to mac80211"
in wmi_tlv_policies of wmi.c because they both add a item in the struct.
patch -p1 -i xxx.patch will auto fix this type conflict.

+               .min_len = sizeof(struct wmi_11d_new_cc_ev) },

+       [WMI_TAG_PER_CHAIN_RSSI_STATS] = {
+               .min_len = sizeof(struct wmi_per_chain_rssi_stats) },
