I'm not parsing this last sentence. s I mentioned in a previous patch, 
it will be easier to understand if you break it down:
what the current code does
what is wrong with the current code
how to fix the current code

this complex test occurs in two places. can it be refactored into a 
well-named bool imperative function?

use ath12k_wmi_tlv_cmd_hdr() everywhere you are creating a TLV header
