[LEDE-DEV] [PATCH v2] ath10k-ct driver: use dma_alloc_coherent, 4.13 based driver

From: Ben Greear <greearb at candelatech.com>

This should help ath10k work on systems with little or no IOMMU
memory.  apu2 can boot two 9888 NICs now, for instance.  From
upstream patch by Adrian Chadd.

And, start building the 4.13 based CT ath10k driver.

v2:  Update the pkg-mirror-hash, update to latest 4.13 ct driver with
  optimized coverage-class settings for 10.1 CT firmware.
