I am pleased to report that commit e6d6ca6e12049dfbff6ac8b029678d2d2c55c34f does provide the support for chip XID 54b. However, I had to apply two other patches, and temporarily revert and then re-apply a third patch to apply to the linux-source-5.10 kernel version 5.10.46-5. Attached is the bash script I used to apply the patches, which are the following: 389cb1ecc86e6c6f210424017cf930a81ddfbf2d..e6d6ca6e12049dfbff6ac8b029678d2d2c55c34f.patch e6e918d4eb93f43e770fbc2a0881686e350e1a1f..c6cff9dfebb3387fa72570af70c9ea34b9e24550.patch 0a7e0c3b5702a6a76cf7e5b8cc10a73e51dc221e..abbf9a0ef8848dca58c5b97750c1c59bbee45637.patch 206a75e003e17aad4fd60047deee2252fdc3df38..e0d38b5880758432f74fe17fea8281691d1eb3c0.patch With the patch built in, success is seen in dmesg logs, and NetworkManager uses the nic with no problems.
