I changed the commit log to this to better describe how this patch helps:
ath11k: process full monitor mode rx support
In full monitor mode, monitor destination ring is read before monitor
status ring. mon_dst_ring has ppdu id, reap till the end of PPDU. Add
all the MPDUs to list. Start processing the status ring, if PPDU id in
status ring is lagging behind, reap the status ring, once the PPDU ID
matches, deliver the MSDU to upper layer. If status PPDU id leading,
reap the mon_dst_ring.
The advantage with full monitor mode is hardware has status buffers available
for all the MPDUs in mon_dst_ring, which makes it possible to deliver more
frames to be seen on sniffer.
Tested-on: QCN9074 hw1.0 PCI WLAN.HK.2.4.0.1-01734-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
But now I see a new warning with QCA6390 caused by patch 3. Please fix that and submit v2.
