mac80211: make ath10k firmware v2 selectable
Added option for old firmware version (10.1 API v2). It seems that recent firmware versions are constantly crashing (at least on a QCA9880-BR4A-R) and this provides the option to select an older version instead. Signed-off-by: Günther Kelleter <guenther.kelleter@devolo.de> SVN-Revision: 46340
