Hi,

The OpenMesh AA2 AP requires two special BDFs to get the Wi-Fi PHYs working 
(correctly). The  bmi-board-id='s would clash with one of the the IPQ401X 
AP-DK boards because QCA doesn't provide special IDs for customers and seems 
to use the AP-DK board-ids in the wifi firmware to change its behavior. 

This update contains:

* add of the antenna gain
* CTLs for DFS channels


Now to the questions from the wiki page [1]:

* description for what hardware this is:

  - it is a QCA4019 based module (based on qcom-ipq4019-ap.dk01.1)
  - one QCA4019 radio is used as 2.4GHz radio
  - one QCA4019 radio is used as 5GHz radio

* origin of the board file (did you create it yourself or where you
  downloaded)

  - it was created by the ODM and QCA for the OpenMesh A42
  - was provided by the ODM to OpenMesh for this product (this includes
    distribution)
  - it is the latest release from 2018-11-28

* ids to be used with the board file (ATH10K_BD_IE_BOARD_NAME in ath10k)

  - QCA4019 hw1.0

    + bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=16,variant=OM-A42
      md5sum: d9690f7937509e920ed070702262a585
    + bus=ahb,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=17,variant=OM-A42
      md5sum: 9a670abb62c7348dfbf70fe706323e2f

* attach the actual board file (board.bin)

  - The name of the files are equal to the id string in the board-2.bin
    (minus the ".bin")

Kind regards,
        Sven
