The bug report doesn't need to be perfect, not all bugs are easily
reproducable, but just knowing about a bug would even help. That's why
ask people to send bug reports to ath10k@lists.infradead.org.

So we have two firmware branches right now, "main" and "10.1". 10.1 is
solely focused on AP mode, nothing else. The main branch again has more
features, like P2P, but doesn't support AP mode as well as 10.1 does.
