Users of the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s have reported that Wi-Fi sometimes
breaks and the log fills up with errors like:

ath11k_pci 0006:01:00.0: HTC Rx: insufficient length, got 1484, expected 1492
ath11k_pci 0006:01:00.0: HTC Rx: insufficient length, got 1460, expected 1484

which based on a quick look at the driver seemed to indicate some kind
of ring-buffer corruption.

I had this issue on the Windows Dev Kit 2023 and X13s, interestingly
never on the HP Omnibook X14. With this patch there have been no
occurrences.
