Bug Description

The latest linux-firmware in saucy is missing firmware for ath10k chips even though the ath10k drivers exist in saucy. This is likely because the ath10k firmware is not available in the upstream linux-firmware git repository. http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath10k points one to https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k. Grabbing that firmware enables an ath10k device to properly work. As ath10k devices are shipping and the driver support already exists in saucy, ideally this firmware will be pulled in before saucy exits development.
