That file is installed on my system, yet I get the above error messages.

$ ls -l /lib/firmware/rtw88/rtw8821c_fw.bin
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 139472 Dec 16 17:54 /lib/firmware/rtw88/rtw8821c_fw.bin
$ sha1sum /lib/firmware/rtw88/rtw8821c_fw.bin
69c087a1963953c2e0e8a8338237e0689b4d7c40  /lib/firmware/rtw88/rtw8821c_fw.bin

So something else must be broken. I'll try the rtw88 driver from ulli
krolls git repository later.
