They were caused by fact that that iwlwifi driver from Intel Wi-Fi cards uses kernel module which is not compatible with ath12k:

lsmod |grep  compat

iwlwifi_compat         12288  2 mac80211,cfg80211

Then I confirmed that I had Intel drivers installed:

dpkg -l |grep iwl

ii  linux-modules-iwlwifi-6.14.0-15-generic       6.14.0-15.15                               amd64        Linux kernel iwlwifi modules for version 6.14.0-15

ii  linux-modules-iwlwifi-generic                 6.14.0-15.15                               amd64        Extra drivers for iwlwifi for the generic flavour 

After removal of these drivers and reboot ath12k driver was loaded successfully
