Wen Gong 01417e5793 ath11k: add regdb.bin download for regdb offload
The regdomain is self-managed type for ath11k, the regdomain info is
reported from firmware, it is not from wireless regdb. Firmware fetch
the regdomain info from board data file before. Currently most of the
regdomain info has moved to another file regdb.bin from board data
file for some chips such as QCA6390 and WCN6855, so the regdomain info
left in board data file is not enough to support the feature which need
more regdomain info.

After download regdb.bin, firmware will fetch the regdomain info from
regdb.bin instead of board data file and report to ath11k. If it does
not have the file regdb.bin, it also can initialize wlan success and
firmware then fetch regdomain info from board data file.

Add download the regdb.bin before download board data for some specific
chip which support supports_regdb in hardware parameters.

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.

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.
