Ryan Hsu 9191fc2a43 ath10k: update the phymode along with bandwidth change request
In the case of Station connects to AP with narrower bandwidth at beginning.
And later the AP changes the bandwidth to winder bandwidth, the AP will
beacon with wider bandwidth IE, eg VHT20->VHT40->VHT80 or VHT40->VHT80.

Since the supported BANDWIDTH will be limited by the PHYMODE, so while
Station receives the bandwidth change request, it will also need to
reconfigure the PHYMODE setting to firmware instead of just configuring
the BANDWIDTH info, otherwise it'll trigger a firmware crash with
non-support bandwidth.

The issue was observed in WLAN.RM.4.4.1-00051-QCARMSWP-1, QCA6174 with
below scenario:

AP xxx changed bandwidth, new config is 5200 MHz, width 2 (5190/0 MHz)
disconnect from AP xxx for new auth to yyy
RX ReassocResp from xxx (capab=0x1111 status=0 aid=102)
associated

....

AP xxx changed bandwidth, new config is 5200 MHz, width 2 (5190/0 MHz)
AP xxx changed bandwidth, new config is 5200 MHz, width 3 (5210/0 MHz)

....

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
