[PATCH 0/2] ath10k: WCN3990 firmware workarounds for WLAN.HL.3.2

[Malte Schababerle]

Two firmware workarounds for WCN3990 (QCA6174 integrated variant on
Qualcomm SM8150/SDM845 platforms) running WLAN.HL.3.2 firmware.

Both issues are firmware bugs where WCN3990 advertises capabilities it
cannot handle correctly. Tested on OnePlus 7T (SM8150) with
WLAN.HL.3.2.0.c2-00006 and WLAN.HL.3.2.0.c2-00011.

Patch 1 fixes a deterministic firmware crash caused by the quiet mode
WMI command. The existing guard from commit 53884577fbcef relied on
THERM_THROT not being advertised, but HL3.2 now advertises it despite
still crashing on the command.

Patch 2 works around a bug where active scan does not tune the radio
on 5GHz non-DFS channels, making 5GHz networks invisible. Forcing
passive scan mode restores 5GHz discovery.

  ath10k: skip quiet mode for WCN3990 to prevent firmware crash
  ath10k: force passive scan on 5GHz for WCN3990
