Public bug reported:
[Impact]
New Intel CyclonePeak Wifi cards require new firmware to enable.
[Fix]
To avoid conflicts, also update 9000 series firmware to ABI 46 which has been
added since v5.1-rc1 from iwlwifi/for-upstream
95a93535 iwlwifi: update -46 firmwares for 22260 and 9000 series
68040ceb iwlwifi: add firmware for 22260 and update 9000 series -46 firmwares
fdfb1531 iwlwifi: add -46.ucode firmwares for 9000 series
[Test Case]
Verified on AX200NGW & 22560NGW chips, wifi works well.
[Regression Risk]
Low. Those firmware are for new cards and new ABI, it won't affect current
Intel wifi cards, and won't take effect on Bionic(4.15) kernel. Only iwlwifi
DKMS driver loads those firmware.
