I understand the reasons for this warning but I don't really trust the
check 'ab->qmi.target.fw_version >= WCN6855_S2IDLE_VER'. I don't know
how the firmware team populates the fw_version so I'm worried that if we
ever switch to a different firmware branch (or similar) this warning
might all of sudden start triggering for the users.
