WLAN team was told to not have MODULE_AUTHOR(), so ath10k was the last WLAN
driver that had a MODULE_AUTHOR() -- ath11k and ath12k do not have one.
And in reality it is very rare for a given module, over time, to only have a
single author. The git history contains the real authorship. So just for that
reason I'd drop it.
