Is Anyone interested? If not, I can take a shot at it on Saturday.


A refreshed patch is applied to atk10k-ct repo so it would be good to
have the same patch on normal ath10k. Many router would benefit
from that.

Found it!

Hmm, Author is now "Ben" and the whole commit message is gone.
Now, adding the commit message back from your original patch
is not a problem, but the missing "Signed-off-by" from him and
you might be.
...

But then, do we need it? Because there might be the option to extend
device_get_mac_address() instead?! ...

I applied this since owrt was using it and it decreased out-of-tree patches,
and it does not break my (non-owrt) use case.  Other than that, I don't know much
about this patch...

If it is decided this patch should go away, please let me know so I can adjust
ath10k-ct accordingly.

Thanks
Ben
