Sorry for the long delay, it's actually a bug in the definition that we have.
This device has only one antenna, so no diversity is possible. It means,
that no need to add a new entry, we need to fix the existing one (the one
below that you added) to have there iwl_cfg_quz_a0_hr_b0. Please tell me
if you wish to do it, or I can fix it.

Thanks for pointing out.
