ath11k currently reports survey results for the last interval between each
invocation of NL80211_CMD_GET_SURVEY. For concurrent invocations, this
can lead to unexpectedly small results, e.g. when hostapd uses survey
data and iw survey dump is invoked in parallel. Fix this by returning
cumulative results, that don't depend on the last invocation. Other
drivers, e.g. ath9k or mt76 also use this behavior.

Markus,

It depends on type of survey request is given to firmware. In ath11k, firmware reports accumulated values. So the above addition is wrong and report double value. Have you
tested this change?
