Upstream kernel commit 4b569ded09fdadb0c14f797c8dae4e8bc4bbad9f added lines to 
load the firmware files and was merged into kernel 6.2, so that it doesn't show 
up in a 6.1 kernel is expected.

Upstream firmware commit 2c2be4215fe29870dcd9a059ff8778e73269ddc1 added the files 
but it seems the Link lines weren't added to the Debian package in commit
9714742762ab2b278fd0961652a4dd54ff82ea8b

If you manually create those links from the above "+Link:" lines, would that 
fix the issues?

The directory is not physically present, but it ought to consists of symlinks 
to the ga102 directory, which does have an `acr` directory.
