    ath10k: add board 2 API support · 0a51b343
    Manikanta Pubbisetty authored
    QCA6174 needs different board files based on board type. To make it easier to
    distribute multiple board files and automatically choose correct board file
    create a simple TLV file format following the same principles as with FW IEs.
    The file is named board-2.bin and contain multiple board files. Each board file
    then can have multiple names.
    
    ath10k searches for file board-N.bin (where N is the interface version number
    for the board file, just like we for firmware files) in /lib/firmware/*, for
    example for qca99x0 it will try to find it here:
    
    /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA99X0/hw2.0/board-2.bin
    
    If ath10k doesn't find board-2.bin then it will fallback to the old board.bin file.
    
    This patch adds a simple name scheme using pci device id which for now will be
    used by qca6174:
    
    bus=%s,vendor=%04x,device=%04x,subsystem-vendor=%04x,subsystem-device=%04x
    
    This removes the old method of having subsystem ids in ar->spec_board_id and
    using that in the board file name.
