From: Sven Eckelmann <seckelmann@datto.com>

The survey counters from firmwares like 10.2.4 are not actually using the
full 64 bit. Instead, they only use the lower 31 bit and overflow ever
14-30s. The driver must frequently fetch the survey data and add it to the
survey data storage to avoid this problem and to present meaningful values
to the caller of .get_survey.

It is assumed for now that only the current rx_channel retrieves relevant
updates for the survey data. This should avoid that the bss channel survey
request times out too often.

Tested on QCA988x hw2.0 10.2.4-1.0-00043

Please clarify in the commit log on which hardware this workaround is
enabled. It should be all hardware with ATH10K_HW_CC_WRAP_SHIFTED_ALL
enabled so both QCA988X versions and QCA9887, right?

Please use ath10k_mac_ prefix for all functions you are adding to mac.c.
Yeah, I know not all the existing one even have that, should fix it at
some point.
