Subject: [PATCH v2] ath10k: skip sending quiet mode cmd for WCN3990

From: Rakesh Pillai <[email protected]>

HL2.0 firmware does not support setting quiet mode. If the host driver sends
the quiet mode setting command to the HL2.0 firmware, it crashes with the below
signature.

fatal error received: err_qdi.c:456:EX:wlan_process:1:WLAN RT:207a:PC=b001b4f0

The quiet mode command support is exposed by the firmware via thermal throttle
wmi service. Enable ath10k thermal support if thermal throttle wmi service bit
is set. 10.x firmware versions support this feature by default, but
unfortunately do not advertise the support via service flags, hence have to
manually set the service flag in ath10k_core_compat_services().

Compile tested only.

v2:

* refactor service bit set to ath10k_core_compat_services() and check for
wmi_op_version

* do service check in thermal.c

I'm planning to queue this for 4.20 as wcn3990 support won't work
otherwise. But I wasn't able to test this so can someone help, please?

Hi Kalle,
I tested this patch on WCN3990 and did basic STA mode sanity. I do not
see any crash with this fix.

Thanks,
Rakesh Pillai.

Thanks. I now tested this with firmware 10.2.4.70.9-2 on QC988X. I'll
update the commit log accordingly.
