Sure. It's the larest one I could find
iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: loaded firmware version 23.11.10.0 op_mode iwlmvm
with the actual firmware file being 'iwlwifi-7260-10.ucode' from the
current linux-firmware tree.

Any suggestions for how to best try to trigger this for testing?
Looking at my logs, it turns out that I actually got this three times,
but they were all on the same boot, and I think the first case might
just have triggered the later ones.
The trigger was turning off wifi from the wifi settings app due to
being in an airplane when they were closing the doors. I don't *think*
there was actually any wifi around at the time, which may or may not
have made the scanning take longer and made it easier to trigger.
But I've done it before (although this machine has been upgraded to
F21 reasonably recently, and I did update the ucode file before the
trip). And I did it afterwards to test. And it happened that one time
(and then apparently kept happening during suspend/resume/shutdown,
but as mentioned, I blame that on some sticky problem from the first
time, and those events in turn happened because I couldn't get
wireless to work afterwards).
IOW, I'm not at all sure I can recreate it, so your "analyzing the
source code for how this could happen" may be the only good way..
