But you also have to submit the correct BDF to Kalle Valo when it is not the 
same as the default one. Right now the board-2.bin provides:

* bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=16.bin created size: 12064
* bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=17.bin created size: 12064
* bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=18.bin created size: 12064
* bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=23.bin created size: 12064
* bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=24.bin created size: 12064
* bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=25.bin created size: 12064
* bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=16,variant=OM-A62.bin created size: 12064

As you can see, the OpenMesh A62 used the reference board with the 
bmi-board-id=16 but required some changes in the BDF. Thus I had to 
submit the modified bus=pci,bmi-chip-id=0,bmi-board-id=16,variant=OM-A62.bin 
to Kalle for integration in QCA9888/hw2.0/board-2.bin of 
https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware.

And then you have to tell ath10k to load the BDF with the variant=
string and not the one without it.


Of course, I don't know whether you had to change anything in the BDF or not. 
So I cannot say whether it is enough for you to just delete this symlink.

Kind regards,
	Sven
