You need to install the firmware, you can find the files here:

https://github.com/kvalo/ath11k-firmware/tree/master/WCN6855/hw2.0/1.1/WLAN.HSP.1.1-03125-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_LITE-3

I recommend using kernel v5.17 to make sure everything works, you seem
to have older kernel so expect problems.
