I have requested someone to try and test this patch series with QCA6390.

I or the testers will get back to you with the test results when they
are
available.

As far as your concerns go, you can choose to pick patches 1-3 and that
would
be just fine.

Things will break if patchset 4 is _not_ in place with patchset 6 being
part of
the tree.

It would, however, be nice to pick the whole series instead and ensure
that
the functionality MHI introduces for boot-up sanity is in place for any
controllers such as ath11k.

Thanks,
Bhaumik
