Now they are (indirectly) claiming that WLAN.HK.2.9.0.1-* is for ath12k. You 
can actually read the response like everything newer than WLAN.HK.2.5.0.1-* is 
for ath12k. Maybe I missed something and somebody can point out my error. Btw. 
their ATH.11.5 release already a newer version than WLAN.HK.2.5.0.1-*.

And maybe someone else known why there is a WLAN.HK.2.11.0.1-* and 
WLAN.HK.2.10.0.1-* [1] for IPQ9574 but not for any other 802.11ax HW. Maybe it 
has to do with the fact that it is used together with 802.11be HW (PCIe, 
QCN9274?) and is therefore still actively maintained?

Kind regards,
