Below is my summary of the patchset. I recommend splitting these into
smaller sets, makes it a lot easier to review and apply. And please send
only one or two patchsets at a time.

[PATCH v5 1/8] ath10k: adjust skb length in ath10k_sdio_mbox_rx_packet

Applied.

Patchset 1:

[PATCH v5 2/8] ath10k: enable RX bundle receive for sdio
[PATCH v5 3/8] ath10k: change max RX bundle size from 8 to 32 for sdio

Reasonal but needs some cleanup.

Patchset 2:

[PATCH v5 4/8] ath10k: add workqueue for RX path of sdio

Is really another thread needed? We already have one for SDIO.

[PATCH v5 6/8] ath10k: add htt TX bundle for sdio

And again a new thread so that we would have three threads for SDIO? I'm
not convinced about that.

Patchset 3:

[PATCH v5 7/8] ath10k: enable alt data of TX path for sdio

Again another module parameter?

[PATCH v5 8/8] ath10k: enable napi on RX path for sdio

Seems reasonable, but worried about breaking USB.

Patchset 4:

[PATCH v5 5/8] ath10k: disable TX complete indication of htt for sdio

Quite hackish and I need numbers how much it really improves throughput
