I don't know what changes WCN7851 has compared to WCN7850 but in general these changes are transparently handled by the firmware and the host driver just sees it as WCN7850. But I hope someone who is familiar with WCN7851 can confirm this. -- https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-wireless/list/ https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
