Please excuse me for the delay in the response. I was carried away by other duties. Yes, could you please provide a fixup patch. I'm going to send v1 now, containing mostly cosmetical and documentation changes. I'll include your patch in v2. > One question I have, if you don't mind, in patch 11, you add a second > channel to qca power sequencer.

That's a good question. I have not looked in the details in the ath10k documentation. I'll try finding it. Maybe Kalle Valo can answer your question. Could you please duplicate your question on the ath10k mailing list? -- With best wishes Dmitry
