Subject: [PATCH 0/3] wifi: Un-embed ath10k and ath11k dummy netdev

struct net_device shouldn't be embedded into any structure, instead,
the owner should use the private space to embed their state into
net_device.

This patch set fixes the problem above for ath10k and ath11k. This also
fixes the conversion of qtnfmac driver to the new helper.

This patch set depends on a series that is still under review:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240404114854.2498663-1-leitao@debian.org/#t

If it helps, I've pushed the tree to
https://github.com/leitao/linux/tree/wireless-dummy

PS: Due to lack of hardware, unfortunately all these patches are
compiled tested only.

  wifi: qtnfmac: Use netdev dummy allocator helper
  wifi: ath10k: allocate dummy net_device dynamically
  wifi: ath11k: allocate dummy net_device dynamically
