thank you for the report, oh boy this one is opens a can of trouble.
It seems I was blissfully unaware that the Debian packaging did not
take into account the symlinks of upstream linux-firmware WHENCE file.
So this means we are missing a *lot* - all the symlinks!?!?

right it was replaced by newer cypress version and there should be
a symlink of that guy from the older name:

 Link: brcm/brcmfmac43340-sdio.bin -> ../cypress/cyfmac43340-sdio.bin

Could you please test latest 2021 upstream package with this symlink?

kind regards,
