On [1] I found a report by Jim Cromie concerning same PCI device-id:

00:0e.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
88W8361 [TopDog] 802.11n Wireless [11ab:2a02] (rev 03)
	Subsystem: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88W8361 [TopDog] 802.11n Wireless [11ab:2a02]

So, let's add 0x2a02 to PCI device table.

Let's not.  There's no firmware for the 8361 that implements the
firmware interface currently implemented by the mwl8k driver, so
this is pretty useless.

From that link:

No.  That's not a bug -- you are free to load drivers for hardware
not currently in your system.

 static DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE(mwl8k_pci_id_table) = {
+	{ PCI_VDEVICE(MARVELL, 0x2a02), .driver_data = MWL8363, },
 	{ PCI_VDEVICE(MARVELL, 0x2a0a), .driver_data = MWL8363, },

A 8361 is certainly not a 8363.
