Public bug reported:

Firmware for this card isn't in the current linux-firmware package.
Latest upstream firmware is also tested but doesn't work either.

The only working firmware is extracted from Windows driver. By comparing
the md5sum, the only different file is ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/board.bin
(upstream is cb37c6, and Windows is df5ba1), we need Qualcomm to
upstream the file to fix this issue.
