Hello,

I'm cross compiling backports-4.2.6-1 to Aarch64 for Linux 3.19.3+ and
running the ath10k drivers against the Compex QCA9880 module.  I get
some firmware load errors.

[   47.824874] Loading modules backported from Linux version v4.2.6-0-g1c02865
[   47.830525] Backport generated by backports.git v4.2.6-1-0-g90118c7

[  210.140598] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: could not probe fw (-2)

Firmware is:
firmware-2.bin_10.1.467.3-1
firmware-5.bin_10.2.4.70.42-2
firmware-3.bin_10.2.2.39.6-1

Why does it appear to be looking for board.bin?  I understood that was
removed from the latest ath10k driver?

Thanks,
Brad Pousland
