Subject[PATCH 5.4 103/408] ath10k: provide survey info as accumulated data
Date
From: Venkateswara Naralasetty <vnaralas@codeaurora.org>

[ Upstream commit 720e5c03e5cb26d33d97f55192b791bb48478aa5 ]

It is expected that the returned counters by .get_survey are monotonic
increasing. But the data from ath10k gets reset to zero regularly. Channel
active/busy time are then showing incorrect values (less than previous or
sometimes zero) for the currently active channel during successive survey
dump commands.

example:

$ iw dev wlan0 survey dump
Survey data from wlan0
frequency: 5180 MHz [in use]
channel active time: 54995 ms
channel busy time: 432 ms
channel receive time: 0 ms
channel transmit time: 59 ms
...

$ iw dev wlan0 survey dump
Survey data from wlan0
frequency: 5180 MHz [in use]
channel active time: 32592 ms
channel busy time: 254 ms
channel receive time: 0 ms
channel transmit time: 0 ms
...

The correct way to handle this is to use the non-clearing
WMI_BSS_SURVEY_REQ_TYPE_READ wmi_bss_survey_req_type. The firmware will
then accumulate the survey data and handle wrap arounds.
