Can I please ask for IPQ6018 firmware to be updated to 2.9.0.1 as well?

We have added IPQ6018 support to OpenWrt but we are forced to use the old 2.4
firmware since anything newer is crashing on IPQ6018, we had the same issue on
IPQ8074 but it was fixed with 2.9.0.1 firmware.

Even for IPQ8074, there is newer 2.9.0.1 firmware that is only
available as part of
QSDK and the community would benefit from being able to use it.

Ideally, ath11k-firmware would at least contain the same blobs as the QUIC repo:
