I believe ...86... is actually the latest.  I don't
know the differences between ...83... and
...86..., but it does suggest you are a bit
backlevel.

The firmware is loaded from user space files,
and your distro needs to make it available.
Typically it would be in the linux-firmware
package (sometimes your distro will subdivide
linux-firmware into multiple packages to
reduce the size(s), so just upgrading the
base may not be enough).
