Wire up RTL8821CS chipset support using the new rtw88 SDIO HCI code as
well as the existing RTL8821C chipset code.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work for me. I applied it on top of 6.2-rc2
master and I get errors during probe (it appears the firmware never
loads).

Relevant dmesg logs are as follows:

[    0.989545] mmc2: new high speed SDIO card at address 0001

[    1.006078] rtw_8821cs mmc2:0001:1: sdio read32 failed (0x1700): -110

The error of "sdio read32 failed (0x1700): -110" then repeats several
hundred times, then I get this:

[    1.066294] rtw_8821cs mmc2:0001:1: failed to download firmware

[    1.066839] rtw_8821cs: probe of mmc2:0001:1 failed with error -16

The hardware I am using is an rtl8821cs that I can confirm was working
with a previous driver.

Thank you.
The USB-based RTL8811CU also doesn't work, with suspiciously similar
errors:

Dec 25 21:43:37 home kernel: rtw_8821cu 1-2:1.0: Firmware version 24.11.0, H2C version 12
Dec 25 21:43:37 home kernel: rtw_8821cu 1-2:1.0 wlp0s20f0u2: renamed from wlan0
Dec 25 21:43:40 home kernel: rtw_8821cu 1-2:1.0: read register 0x5 failed with -110
Is this the very first register access or are there other register
accesses before that actually do work?

Sascha
It's not the first register access. rtw_mac_power_switch() runs a few
times before things fail.
