Yeah. The patches come from the firmware’s source code repo:
https://github.com/qca/open-ath9k-htc-firmware/tree/master/local/patches
Normally, one would run ‘make toolchain’ in the firmware’s source tree,
which would build a patched tool chain. But here, we build the tool
chain ourselves, so we need to import these patches.
We can only hope that Qualcomm will get those patches upstream.
