That's expected, board files from other drivers are unsupported. You
need an ath11k specific board file.

If you use something outside of my repositories (ath.git &
ath11k-firmware) please mention that clearly as that's unsupported. I
try to make sure that everything in my repos is backwards compatible,
but I cannot guarantee that for out of tree releases.
