Upcoming 19.07.4 and 18.07.9 stable releases

[Nick Lowe]

It seems there is an important ath10k patch included in the 4.4.235,
4.9.235, 4.14.196 and 4.19.143, 5.4.62 LTS kernels that is applicable
for OpenWRT users who are not using an up to date CT driver with Wave
2 QCA 802.11ac generation hardware, it is already merged for CT.

It resolves a PCIe hang seen due to the DMA burst size value meaning
different things between Wave 1 and Wave 2 hardware.

The issue resolved is that a value of 0 for the DMA burst size has a
different meaning and instruction depending on the generation.

Cheers,

Nick
