[PATCH] ath10k: avoid consecutive OTP download to reduce boot time

[Maharaja Kennadyrajan <mkenna@codeaurora.org>]

From: Vikas Patel <vikpatel@codeaurora.org>

Currently, OTP is downloaded twice in case of "pre-cal-dt"
and "pre-cal-file" to fetch the board ID and takes around
~2 sec more boot uptime.

First OTP download happens in "ath10k_core_probe_fw" and
second in ath10k_core_start. First boot does not need OTP
download in core start when valid board id acquired.

The second OTP download is required upon core stop/start.

This patch skips the OTP download when first OTP download
has acquired a valid board id. This patch also marks board
id invalid in "ath10k_core_stop", which will force the OTP
download in ath10k_core_start and fetches valid board id.

Tested HW: QCA9984
Tested FW: 10.4-3.6-00104
