Devicetree properties describing exactly the same thing should be
reusable between device bindings. All Qualcomm Atheros WiFi chips needs
certain calibration data, so properties should not be prefixed with
device family (ath10k).
Deprecate qcom,ath10k-calibration-variant and alike, so we gradually
switch to a common property. This will also allow moving these
properties to common schema, if desired.

I'm stepping down as ath10k, ath11k and ath12k maintainer so remove me from
MAINTAINERS file and Device Tree bindings. Jeff continues as the maintainer.
As my quicinc.com email will not work anymore so add an entry to .mailmap file
to direct the mail to my kernel.org address.

The ath10k driver waits for an "MSA_READY" indicator
to complete initialization. If the indicator is not
received, then the device remains unusable.
cf. ath10k_qmi_driver_event_work()
Several msm8998-based devices are affected by this issue.
Oddly, it seems safe to NOT wait for the indicator, and
proceed immediately when QMI_EVENT_SERVER_ARRIVE.
Jeff Johnson wrote:
The feedback I received was "it might be ok to change all ath10k qmi
to skip waiting for msa_ready", and it was pointed out that ath11k
(and ath12k) do not wait for it.
However with so many deployed devices, "might be ok" isn't a strong
argument for changing the default behavior.
Kalle Valo first suggested setting a bit in firmware-5.bin to trigger
work-around in the driver. However, firmware-5.bin is parsed too late.
So we are stuck with a DT property.

For WCN3990 platforms we need to look for the platform / board specific
firmware-N.mbn file which corresponds to the wlanmdsp.mbn loaded to the
modem DSP via the TQFTPserv. Add firmware-name property describing this
classifier.

This is an existing optional property that ieee80211.yaml/cfg80211
provides. It's useful to further restrict supported frequencies
for a specified device through device-tree.
For testing the addition, I added the ieee80211-freq-limit
property with values from an OpenMesh A62 device. This is
because the OpenMesh A62 has "special filters in front of
the RX+TX paths to the 5GHz PHYs. These filtered channel
can in theory still be used by the hardware but the signal
strength is reduced so much that it makes no sense."
The driver supported this since ~2018 by
commit 34d5629d2c ("ath10k: limit available channels via DT ieee80211-freq-limit")

Convert the ath10k bindings to YAML.
Dropped properties that are absent at the current state of mainline:
- qcom,msi_addr
- qcom,msi_base
Somewhat based on the ath11k bindings.
