[PATCH v4 09/10] ath10k: store firmware files in memory

[Michal Kazior <michal.kazior@tieto.com>]

Different FW versions may provide different
functions thus mean different hw capabilities
advertised to mac80211.

It is safe to swap firmware files on disk during
driver/device runtime without worries.
