Lingbo Kong 94f228ac4f wifi: ath11k: fix ack signal strength calculation
Currently, the calculation of ack signal strength is incorrect.

This is because before calculating the ack signal strength, ath11k need
to determine whether the hardware and firmware support db2dbm. If the
hardware and firmware support db2dbm, do not need to add noise floor,
otherwise, need to add noise floor.

Besides, the value of ack_rssi passed by firmware to ath11k should be a
signed number, so change its type to s8.

After that, "iw wlan0 station dump" show the correct ack signal strength.

Such as:
root@CDCCSTEX0799733-LIN:~# iw wlp88s0 station dump

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 reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
