ath11k and ath12k build the PPE Thresholds field of their HE
capabilities from the firmware's WMI layout with each 3-bit threshold
bit-reversed (QPSK and 256-QAM swap places, 64-QAM becomes reserved),
while a peer's thresholds are converted the right way. Firmware that
reports 0 and 7 only, as IPQ8074 and QCN9074 do, hides it. One patch
per driver.
