The reaction of QCA when asking for new IDs was mostly "please go away, we will not talk to you about it". But with the help of Kalle Valo, a new mechanism called "qcom,ath10k-calibration-variant" was added (for embedded boards which include QCA 11ac wave2 radios). There are a couple of mails about it on this list - a general overview about BDFs, variant strings and why we need them can be found at http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath10k/2018-March/011066.html. But it looks like you really got the IDs 30+31 (maybe because you are selling the, as separate PCIe modules?). Then I would guess that you can still use the same process as we use for the accesspoint specific BDFs (just without the variant= part). The description of the general upstreaming process can be found at https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/ath10k/boardfiles - but it seems like Kalle Valo doesn't have much time for it at the moment for it (or there might be other problems which we don't see from our perspective - for example legal departments). Maybe you or Ben Greear can enhance the submission for the BDFs to better answer the questions from the "Submitting board files" guide.
