Miaoqing Pan 0e0ca8dbfe wifi: ath11k: add usecase firmware handling based on device compatible 
[ Upstream commit c386a2b106 ]

For M.2 WLAN chips, there is no suitable DTS node to specify the
firmware-name property. In addition, assigning firmware for the
M.2 PCIe interface causes chips that do not use usecase specific
firmware to fail. Therefore, abandoning the approach of specifying
firmware in DTS. As an alternative, propose a static lookup table
mapping device compatible to firmware names. Currently, only WCN6855
HW2.1 requires this.

However, support for the firmware-name property is retained to keep
the ABI backwards compatible.

For details on usecase specific firmware, see:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250522013444.1301330-3-miaoqing.pan@oss.qualcomm.com/.

Tested-on: WCN6855 hw2.1 PCI WLAN.HSP.1.1-04685-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_IOE-1

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
