Hi there,
technically I could try and make that change, but I don't actually run
this driver or Linux at all; this change is for running OpenBSD on that
machine with a correctly defined device tree.
The realities of Linux being the de facto upstream for device tree
bindings force me to submit changes here so they end up being usable
for other operating systems as well.
I would assume that eventually someone that runs Linux will adjust the
ath12k driver as well, because this kind of binding has been used for
both ath10k and ath11k and this is just a copy with a name change for
ath12k.
Cheers,
Patrick
