I don't really see a reason to. UTF is just another main program to
run on the device.

If anything I would suggest to unify the FW API parsing logic to work
with a dedicated structure instead of `struct ath10k` directly, i.e.

  struct ath10k_fw {
    void *data;
    size_t data_len;
    enum wmi_op_version wmi_op_version;
    // ...
  };

  int ath10k_core_fw_api_parse(struct ath10k *ar,
                               struct ath10k_fw *arfw,
                               struct firmware *fw)
   {
     // parse and fill in `arfw`
   }

  struct ath10k {
    // ...
    struct ath10k_fw fw_normal;
    struct ath10k_fw fw_utf;
    // ...
  };
