In theory we could, but at least the WCN6855 in the X13s has a similar
set of supplies and enable gpios which are currently not fully described
in the devicetree as there has been no support for doing so thus far.
Instead we rely on the bootloader to enable the module.

I haven't had time to look at the latest attempt on adding support for
handling such resources, but eventually we'll need to address this in
some way.
