A potential (temporary) workaround is to remove the offending symlinks from package file as follows:
mkdir linux-firmware cd linux-firmware cp /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-firmware_20220314.gitcd01f857-0ubuntu1_all.deb ./ ar xf linux-firmware_20220314.gitcd01f857-0ubuntu1_all.deb zstd -d data.tar.zst tar vf data.tar --delete ./lib/firmware/ath11k/WCN6855/hw2.1/ zstd -f data.tar ar rcs linux-firmware_20220314.gitcd01f857-0ubuntu1_all.deb debian-binary control.tar.zst data.tar.zst sudo dpkg -i linux-firmware_20220314.gitcd01f857-0ubuntu1_all.deb
One can then create the hw2.1 symlinks manually.
