Hello Larry,
great news really!

Actually, the file common.mk is missing, so it fails.

#rm -f .symvers.8852cu
make ARCH=x86_64 CROSS_COMPILE= -C /lib/modules/6.3.3-arch1-1/build
M=/usr/src/rtw8852cu  modules
/usr/src/rtw8852cu/Makefile:654: /usr/src/rtw8852cu/common.mk: No such
file or directory
make[2]: *** No rule to make target '/usr/src/rtw8852cu/common.mk'.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [Makefile:2025: /usr/src/rtw8852cu] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:705: modules] Error 2
