v3:
1. add patch "ath11k: add fallback board name without variant while searching board-2.bin"
2. reabsed to latest ath.git master ath-202111221436
v2: rebased to latest ath.git master ath-202111170737
When it does not have matched board name with variant in board-2.bin,
ath11k will fallback to search without variant.
Also read the variant from SMBIOS.

2.31.1
Sometimes it has a variant value which read from DT or SMBIOS by
ath11k, and meanwhile it does not have the matched board name in
board-2.bin, then it will failed at boot up phase.
Add fallback board name which removed variant value and search again
in board-2.bin when failed with variant and try to load the board
data again to increase boot up success rate.

Gives the warning that SMBIOS recommended firmware not found but
succesfuly fallback to generic mode and starts.
