Possible Regression of RTL8852BE on linux-firmware-realtek 20250808-1

Description:

I am using RTL8852BE. Before this update it was working fine. After updating to linux-firmware-realtek 20250808-1, wifi disconnects often. There are discussion on bbs https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2257215 and reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/1mqrqb3/firmware_update_broke_wifi_realtek_rtl8852be/

Additional info:

  • package version(s): linux-firmware-realtek 20250808-1
  • config and/or log files:
  • link to upstream bug report, if any: I don't know where to report
