I check RFE allocation of 8821c. 255 isn't defined.
If efuse info isn't complete 0xff, try to force RFE 0 to see if it works.

I have a 8723DU module.

With this patchset, it can find AP, but can't estiablish connection.
I check air capture, but no TX packets found.
That says RX works, but TX doesn't.

With master branch of Hans Ulli GitHub, it shows many "atomic scheduling"
warnings when I insert the USB dongle.
When I do 'iw scan', it is going to get stuck, and I can only push
power button to turn off my laptop.
