I do see hangs from time to time (rx ring became corrupted). Whenever this is due to a bug in the firmware or the firmware is pushing harder, I don't know. <https://forum.lede-project.org/t/how-to-build-ipq4018-firmware/4513/16>

I also wanted to upgrade the QCA988X firmware first, but it was crashing directly after being loaded and now linux-firmeware ships the old one again: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath10k/2017-September/010138.html Hauke

This updates the firmware files for the QCA9888 and QCA4019 chips to a more recent version which is also used in the linux-firmware repository.
