Did you test this at all? Because to me it looks like in
ath11k_init_wmi_config_ipq8074() this is overwritten with:

	config->rx_decap_mode = TARGET_DECAP_MODE_NATIVE_WIFI;

So I can't see how this would even work. I noticed this while I was
cleaning up ath11k_wmi_cmd_init(). I'll send a patch soon, please test
that and let me know if it works.
