this is a linux bug, you might want to submit it upstream to AMD guys.

right, they only got pushed upstream in linux-firmware git on 11/2/2021
after the latest 20210208 release, hence unfortunately they miss out the
next debian release
https://release.debian.org/bullseye/freeze_policy.html

They will land in the next upstream release upload of 202103XX to
experimental, backports and then after bullseye release to unstable
(plus next testing).
 
Thank you for your report!
