Until now tracing has been always enabled, irrespective what debug_mask
has contained. Now you are changing that and by default log messages are
not delivered through tracing until user enables them. So I think to
keep the old behaviour trace_debug_mask should be ATH10K_DBG_ANY
(0xffffffff) by default and the user can modify the mask per device via
the debugfs file.
But is it really needed to be able to filter trace messages? debug_mask
I understand, but not sure about trace_debug_mask.
