+Subject: [PATCH] ath10k: fix DMA related firmware crashes on multiple devices
+
+Some platforms really don't like DMA bursts of 256 bytes, and this
+causes the firmware to crash when sending beacons.
+Also, changing this based on the firmware version does not seem to make
+much sense, so use 128 bytes for all versions.
