mac80211: ath11k: sync with ath-next
Synchronize the ath11k backports with the current ath-next tree.

This backports several memory leak issues, PCI IRQ fixup, peer add locking
fix as well as IPQ5018 support, though IPQ5018 support is unused for now.

This allows to easily backport further fixes as cherry picking them has
started requiring manual conflict resolution.

Subject: [PATCH] ath11k: support setting FW memory mode via DT
ath11k is really memory intensive for devices with less that 1GB of RAM,
so lets allow saving a significant amount of memory by setting the FW to
Mode-1 via DTS for devices that need it.
However the drawback is reduced number of VDEV-s and peers which is a
reasonable tradeoff.
Mode-2 allows for further reduction, but it has further restrictions.
While we are here, lets add a print to be able to easily determine what
FW memory mode is being used.
