It sucks for me that I cannot get a feature-flag for my firmware upstream,
so my kernels and firmware keep loosing compatibility each time you
add a new flag.
I guess I will just have to pick a much larger value and just hope it
won't collide for a while.
But, if you are at liberty to change this, please skip 5 and 6,
and make yours be 7 (my kernel/firmware currently uses the two below):
/* Firmware from Candela Technologies, enables more VIFs, etc */
ATH10K_FW_FEATURE_WMI_10X_CT = 5,
/* Firmware from Candela Technologies with rx-software-crypt.
* Required for multiple stations connected to same AP when using
* encryption (ie, commercial version of CT firmware) */
ATH10K_FW_FEATURE_CT_RXSWCRYPT = 6,
Thanks,
Ben
