Mmm,

This is my dmesg:

[ 7.251278] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: qca6174 hw2.1 (0x05010000, 0x003405ff, 168c:0041:17aa:3545 fallback) fw atheros-12.0.0.102-fw api 5 htt-ver 3.25 wmi-op 4 htt-op 3 cal otp max-sta 32 features

But yours is:

[ 3.584969] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: qca6174 hw2.1 (0x05010000, 0x003405ff, 168c:0041:17aa:3545 fallback) fw WLAN.RM.1.1-00141 api 5 htt-ver 0.0 wmi-op 4 htt-op 3 cal otp max-sta 32 features ignore-otp,no-4addr-pad

So, it seems to me that you are using this firmware: https://github.com/kvalo/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/ath10k/QCA6174/hw2.1

When you should be using this one: https://github.com/atondwal/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/ath10k/QCA6164/hw2.1

I was reading my original message and it seems there are some typos, please copy the two files from https://github.com/atondwal/ath10k-firmware/tree/master/ath10k/QCA6164/hw2.1 to /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174 (note the numbers do *not* match, that is the typo).
