This debug print is good to have, but with the new htt version it would
be good to print it always using the info level. For example, can we add
it to the same line with "firmware %s booted" string?

(Please take into account that the info messages still need to be
compact, by default they should not be longer than five lines or so.)

Print the htt version in the error message as well?

I think using "< 3" is more readable:

if (htt->target_version_major < 3 &&
   !ieee80211_is_mgmt(hdr->frame_control)) {
        ...
}

And is the single line too long? Didn't count it, though.

Ditto.
