Different Qualcomm platforms using WCN3990 WiFI chip use SoC-specific
firmware versions with different features. For example firmware for
SDM845 doesn't use single-chan-info-per-channel feature, while firmware
for QRB2210 / QRB4210 requires that feature. Allow board DT files to
override the subdir of the fw dir used to lookup the firmware-N.bin file
decribing corresponding WiFi firmware.

Perhaps it'd be useful to move to a more noisy loglevel

No, these are details. If the firmware is in place, it is loaded properly.

Sorry for the delay, too many drivers... But this looks good to me, few
small comments.

In the commit message it would it would be good to have an example of
the new firmware path. And also mention that board file (board-2.bin)
handling is not affected, at least that's how understood from reading
the code.

So here you test if ar->board_name is NULL.

What do you mean with empty string in this case, "\n" (with length of 1)
or NULL? Should we also test for strlen(0) in ath10k_fetch_fw_file()?
