struct net_device shouldn't be embedded into any structure, instead,
the owner should use the private space to embed their state into
net_device.

This patch set fixes the problem above for ath10k and ath11k. This also
fixes the conversion of qtnfmac driver to the new helper.

This patch set depends on a series that is still under review:

If it helps, I've pushed the tree to
https://github.com/leitao/linux/tree/wireless-dummy

PS: Due to lack of hardware, unfortunately all these patches are
compiled tested only.
