Hauke Mehrtens 928e893a11 mac80211: Update to version 5.3-rc4-1
The removed patches were applied upstream.
The type of the RT2X00_LIB_EEPROM config option was changed to bool,
because boolean is an invalid value and the new kconfig system
complained about this.

Subject: ath10k: fix max antenna gain unit
Most of the txpower for the ath10k firmware is stored as twicepower (0.5 dB
steps). This isn't the case for max_antenna_gain - which is still expected
by the firmware as dB.
The firmware is converting it from dB to the internal (twicepower)
representation when it calculates the limits of a channel. This can be seen
in tpc_stats when configuring "12" as max_antenna_gain. Instead of the
expected 12 (6 dB), the tpc_stats shows 24 (12 dB).
Tested on QCA9888 and IPQ4019 with firmware 10.4-3.5.3-00057.
