Hi Uraj

I expect tx_chain_mask_shift and rx_chain_mask_shift must be same. Do 
you see any specific issue with this? This will help me debug more.

I see that when userspace changes chainmask, __ath12k_set_antenna calls 
ath12k_mac_setup_ht_vht_cap() to reconfigure caps. Please let me know if 
you are seeing any specific issue, so that I can address it better..

Thanks
