wifi: ath11k: fix warning in dma_free_coherent() of memory chunks while recovery
[ Upstream commit f74878433d5ade360447da5d92e9c2e535780d80 ]
Commit 26f3a021b37c ("ath11k: allocate smaller chunks of memory for
firmware") and commit f6f92968e1e5 ("ath11k: qmi: try to allocate a
big block of DMA memory first") change ath11k to allocate the memory
chunks for target twice while wlan load. It fails for the 1st time
because of large memory and then changed to allocate many small chunks
for the 2nd time sometimes as below log.
1st time failed:

[10411.642049] ath11k_pci 0000:05:00.0: qmi mem seg type 1 size 524288
And then commit 5962f370ce41 ("ath11k: Reuse the available memory after
firmware reload") skip the ath11k_qmi_free_resource() which frees the
memory chunks while recovery, after that, when run recovery test on
WCN6855, a warning happened every time as below and finally leads fail
for recovery.

The reason is because when wlan start to recovery, the type, size and
count is not same for the 1st and 2nd QMI_WLFW_REQUEST_MEM_IND message,
Then it leads the parameter size is not correct for the dma_free_coherent().
For the chunk[1], the actual dma size is 524288 which allocate in the
2nd time of the initial wlan load phase, and the size which pass to
dma_free_coherent() is 3784704 which is got in the 1st time of recovery
phase, then warning above happened.
Change to use prev_size of struct target_mem_chunk for the paramter of
dma_free_coherent() since prev_size is the real size of last load/recovery.
Also change to check both type and size of struct target_mem_chunk to
reuse the memory to avoid mismatch buffer size for target. Then the
warning disappear and recovery success. When the 1st QMI_WLFW_REQUEST_MEM_IND
for recovery arrived, the trunk[0] is freed in ath11k_qmi_alloc_target_mem_chunk()
and then dma_alloc_coherent() failed caused by large size, and then
trunk[1] is freed in ath11k_qmi_free_target_mem_chunk(), the left 18
trunks will be reuse for the 2nd QMI_WLFW_REQUEST_MEM_IND message.
