I checked and I think this is a some kind of RSSI stats event. I assume
that's a new feature coming from RM.4.4 branch. (Michael said on IRC he
is not seeing that with RM.2.0 branch.)

Yes, it's harmless but ath10k should not print that warning to not
distract the users. Can someone make a patch to silent the warning that
similarly like with WMI_10_2_WDS_PEER_EVENTID above?
