No, my patchwork script has few quirks and it actually takes the quoted
text from my pending branch, not from your actual email. That's why you
see my s-o-b there. I haven't bothered to fix that yet, but hopefully
one day.

Thanks, I'll include this information to the commit log and then apply
the patch. And I'll assume you have also tested this patch on those
platforms so that I can add a Tested-on tag?

BTW, ath10k should strip that ugly "QC_IMAGE_VERSION_STRING=" string in
the firmware version. Patches very welcome :)
