I'm not expecting any conflicts with this, and if there are, they should
be easy for Stephen or Linus to fix. So it's easiest to route this via
your tree. But I'm not giving my ack yet, see below.

I'm worried that this patchset breaks bisect. Every patch in the
patchset should not break existing functionality, what if only patches
1-3 are included in the tree but not patch 4? Wouldn't ath11k be broken
then? I didn't review the whole patchset, but I suspect the fix is to
include the ath11k change in the actual mhi patch which changes the
functionality. So that way we would not have a separate ath11k patch at
all.

Also I'm not able to test this patchset at the moment. Can someone else
help and do a quick test with QCA6390 to verify these doesn't break
ath11k?
