Some firmware revisions (e.g. qca6174 with fw73)
don't deliver beacons to host reliably. This
causes random disconnects even in perfect
conditions. This is most visible with
multi-channel operation.
All available firmware revisions seem to support
beacon miss offloading so there shouldn't be any
problems.

Notes:
v2:
* conflict resolution hint: base of this patchset
(af695a659c69d347948ceab2c562e208ba48b26e) doesn't
include `ath10k: fix patching mistake for AP/IBSS CSA`
yet. Whichever you apply first you'll end up with a
conflict in ath10k_bss_disassoc(). Eventually the
data_lock goes away from there.
