Subject: [PATCH 2/2] wifi: ath11k: reports address list if chip supports 2 stations

Report address list to mac80211 layer so user doesn't need to specify
address when an interface is added because the address can be allocated
from the list by mac80211.

The derived addresses have LAA(Local Administered Address) bit set, and
only the first byte is changed. Take the 00:03:7f:xx:xx:xx as example to
derive:
addresses[0] is unchanged, it's siill 00:03:7f:xx:xx:xx,
addresses[1] is 02:03:7f:xx:xx:xx,
addresses[2] is 12:03:7f:xx:xx:xx,
addresses[3] is 22:03:7f:xx:xx:xx,
addresses[4] is 32:03:7f:xx:xx:xx.
However as only 3 addresses are reported now, so addresses[3] and addresses[4]
aren't actually derived.

Tested-on: WCN6855 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HSP.1.1-03125-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_LITE-3
