ath10k: do not use coherent memory for allocated device memory chunks
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Coherent memory is more expensive to allocate (and constrained on some
architectures where it has to be pre-allocated). It is also completely
unnecessary, since the host has no reason to even access these allocated
memory spaces
