ath79: fix ath10k caldata extraction on some D-Link DIR-842 C3 devices
According to forum threads [0][1] and a report on IRC by Doc-Saintly some of those boards have calibration data in a different place. Only one alternative location is known. Without proper board calibration data (board.bin having all 0xff bytes) ath10k firmware still tries to load but crashes on startup with a confusing error message. If you're applying this patch manually on your device do not forget to remove /lib/firmware/ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:00:00.0.bin and reboot to force caldata re-extraction.
