Why are chip_id and board_id masked? Why cannot we use values directly
provided by the firmware?

below is the log for WCN6855 2.0, its chip_id is 0x2 and board_id is 0x106, but actually we need to
find the board data with chip-id=0 and board-id=6, so we add mask here.

[ 3000.176621] ath11k_pci 0000:05:00.0: chip_id 0x2 chip_family 0xb board_id 0x106 soc_id 0x400c0200 [ 3000.182361] ath11k_pci 0000:05:00.0: boot using board name 'bus=pci,vendor=17cb,device=1103,subsystem-vendor=17cb,subsystem-device=3374,qmi-chip-id=0,qmi-board-id=6'

And if we need to mask those, it's better to do them in qmi.c where they
are stored:

Currenly logic of default: in ath11k_core_create_board_name() which is introduced in 1st commit also use the chip_id and board_id, if mask them in qmi.c may effect the logic of ath11k_core_create_board_name().

+					 size_t name_len)
+{
+	/* Note: bus is fixed to ahb. When other bus type supported,

+
+	ath11k_dbg(ab, ATH11K_DBG_BOOT, "boot using board name '%s'\n", name);
+
+	return 0;
+}

another thing is that, other bits of chip_id/board_id maybe also need used by other place/feature, so we still need to store the total original value of chip_id/board_id instead of mask it only for board data file.
Then user can easily get their own mask from chip_id/board_id.

	if (resp.chip_info_valid) {
		ab->qmi.target.chip_id = resp.chip_info.chip_id;
		ab->qmi.target.chip_family = resp.chip_info.chip_family;
	}

	if (resp.board_info_valid)
		ab->qmi.target.board_id = resp.board_info.board_id;
	else
		ab->qmi.target.board_id = 0xFF;
