Venkateswara Naralasetty 41f77cc516 ath10k: provide survey info as accumulated data
[ Upstream commit 720e5c03e5 ]

It is expected that the returned counters by .get_survey are monotonic
increasing. But the data from ath10k gets reset to zero regularly. Channel
active/busy time are then showing incorrect values (less than previous or
sometimes zero) for the currently active channel during successive survey
dump commands.

example:

  $ iw dev wlan0 survey dump
  Survey data from wlan0
  	frequency:                      5180 MHz [in use]
  	channel active time:            54995 ms
  	channel busy time:              432 ms
  	channel receive time:           0 ms
  	channel transmit time:          59 ms
  ...

  $ iw dev wlan0 survey dump
  Survey data from wlan0
  	frequency:                      5180 MHz [in use]
  	channel active time:            32592 ms
  	channel busy time:              254 ms
  	channel receive time:           0 ms
  	channel transmit time:          0 ms
  ...

The correct way to handle this is to use the non-clearing
WMI_BSS_SURVEY_REQ_TYPE_READ wmi_bss_survey_req_type. The firmware will
then accumulate the survey data and handle wrap arounds.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
