No joy for me, Pauli. I tried simply copying the firmware included with the new driver into /lib/firmware/rtlwifi and verified the SHA1 sum matched the one you listed. I rebooted the machine (to avoid dealing with any rmmod/modprobe shenanigans) and continue to see ~10% packet loss due to repeated Reason 6 deauthentication.

Relevant SHA1 sums for the drivers I have:
