[OpenWrt-Devel] New ath10k ct driver and firmware available.

[Ben Greear]

The driver commit is:  9e5ab25027e0971fa24ccf93373324c08c4e992d

This should fix a problem with 1560 MTU, 160Mhz on DFS channels,
some other small issues on < 5.2 kernels, and for 5.2 driver,
it pulls in some upstream stable fixes.

wave-1 firmware changes since last update:

   *  June 24, 2019: Try allocating low-priority WMI msgs if high-prio are not available.

   *  June 24, 2019: Init rate-ctrl to start at lowest rate instead of in the middle.  Hoping
                     this helps DHCP when station connects from a long distance.

wave-2:

   *  June 24, 2019  Start rate-ctrl at minimal values to help DHCP work better for far-away peers.

   *  July 24, 2019  Fix old regression that made /a (and probably /b/g) perform poorly, at least on
                     diet-compiled images.

   *  Aug 8, 2019  Improve a/b/g rate-ctrl by damping the PER swings caused by the all-or-nothing logic
                   of transmitting non-block-ack frames one at a time.


I would not be surprised if wave-1 could use similar /a/b/g rate ctrl changes that I put into wave-2,
I'm curious to hear of how it works for you if you test it.
