rtw88_8821cu takes priority over the github driver, so this shouldn't effect other units or usb dongles people use.

My reasoning is; The rtw88 driver for reasons yet unknown seems to trigger usb fails more often than the github driver. If a fail occurs it will introduce dmesg spam and upon reboot leave the onboard wireless module undetectable.
