Looking at that target string it seems to contain some windows specific

You mentioned trying the firmware from linux-firmware repo as well.
However, could you try that firmware file instead with logging enabled.
I want to know whether you get same failure there or something else.

in linux-firmware/brcm, there is

# md5sum bcm43xx-0.fw (96kb)
b0736e3590b05d27284fbb8a3efd50e1  bcm43xx-0.fw

# hexdump -C bcm43xx-0.fw | tail -20

(wlan0 didn't even show)

and there is

# md5sum brcmfmac4330-sdio.bin (222kb)
