You also seem to be adding fw crash and reset countes. It's probably
worth including this in the commit log.

I was actually wondering about moving ath10k_target_stats out of debug
while doing some cleanups. Your patch can actually justify this kind
of move.

fw_stats should be protected by ar->data_lock. See
ath10k_read_fw_stats(). You could in theory report inconsistent stats.

Unprotected? I guess it's not terribly wrong since this is the only
place it updates the values.
