I have the same issue with my new lenovo yoga 3 14".

$lspci -nn | tail -n1
02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Qualcomm Atheros Device [168c:0041] (rev 20)

$ cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/product_version
Lenovo Yoga 3 14

I also have no rfkill switch, which means that my wireless was hard blocked.
I added my product version into the ideapad-laptop module from git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-vivid.git (see attached patch).

Now it is no more hard blocked
$ rfkill list
0: ideapad_wlan: Wireless LAN
        Soft blocked: no
        Hard blocked: no

But still not usable.

I'm willing to test anything you propose.
