Ah, you are indeed correct!  I hadn't noticed that.  Unless I hear
otherwise, I'll send a v2 tomorrow that removes the field entirely.

Yeah, I originally had a WARN_ON() here and then took it out because
it seemed like extra overhead and, as you said, someone writing the
code has to know how the API works already I think.  ...but I'll add
it back in if people want.

Seems like a good idea.  Is the right place at the start of
ath10k_snoc_hif_start()?
