My first comments, more later. But my first impression is that I like
this, we just need to sort out some implementation issues.

kbuild found some warnings:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/debug.c:725:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'vfree' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/debug.c:624:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'vmalloc' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/debug.c:624:6: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast [enabled by default]

The naming of structures and functions are a bit too long, but I'll
comment on that later. That's easy to change as the last thing.

Actually I would prefer to have magic first and have ASCII string as
string, for example "ATH10K-FW-DUMP".

bus_type or something like that would be good to add already now.

I don't see any point of using u8 or u16. Would it be simpler just to
use u32 for everything?

Can we reuse ETHTOOL_FWVERS_LEN? cfg80211 already uses that.

#define ETHTOOL_FWVERS_LEN	32

Maybe 128 bytes, just so that we don't need to change it for some time?

I would prefer:

u8 data[0];

So that this struct is only about the header.

Empty line after the define.

I think these should be in struct ath10k_debug.

Locking? If this functions depends on something, please document that

Unneeded parenthesis.

I prefer separating variable declarations and definitions.

This is a bit awkward way of defining the length. Something like this
would be easier to read:

len = sizeof (*dump_tlv) + sizeof(ar->dbglog_entry_data);
len +=	sizeof (*dump_tlv) + sizeof(ar->reg_dump_values));

BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(dump_data->fw_ver) != sizeof(ar->hw->wiphy->fw_version))?

And wouldn't strlcpy() be safer?

checkpatch actually complains about this:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/debug.c:649: WARNING: LINUX_VERSION_CODE should be avoided, code should be for the version to which it is merged

But I guess there's nothing we can do for that.

strlcpy()?

Is this cheak necessary? In what cases is i_private NULL?

debug.h shouldn't access pci.h directly. All access should happen
through hif.

Should these be in hw.h?

Why remove bitops.h?

Have to stop here, more later.
