To me they look significantly different:

https://github.com/qca/ath6kl-firmware/blob/master/LICENSE.qca_firmware

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/tree/LICENCE.atheros_firmware

And based on past experience I suspect that linux-firmware maintainers
do not want take the license used in ath6kl-firmware.git.
