On the ZyXEL P2812HNU-F1, running 21.02-rc3 wifi does not work. The module (rt2800pci) is available and loaded, but 'iw list' doesn't show the interface, and there is no trace in kernel log.

On 19.07.7 the kernel log shows:
[   10.744853] NET: Registered protocol family 24
[   10.775006] xt_time: kernel timezone is -0000

[   11.071002] kmodloader: done loading kernel modules from /etc/modules.d/*

but on 21.02-rc3 this is gone:
[   11.386298] NET: Registered protocol family 24
[   11.408149] xt_time: kernel timezone is -0000
[   11.717990] kmodloader: done loading kernel modules from /etc/modules.d/*

The module needs an eeprom file 'RT3062,eeprom', which I provided. When I omit that file in 19.07.7 dmesg shows:
