also bug report from ArchLinux bug tracker (contains more info):

Since this bug report is about the Dell XPS 13 2-in1: I tested your
revert with this device, but the issue persists at least on this
device. So these might be two different issues, one for your device
and another one for the XPS.


Yeah, to get iwlwifi to work somewhat nicely you need this revert, and also theese on top of 5.4.6:

and atleast v2 of the "iwlwifi: mvm: don't send the IWL_MVM_RXQ_NSSN_SYNC notif to Rx queues" patch that is being debated on this list.

With theese in place, we seem to have it behaving properly again for Mageia users reporting various problems / firmware crashes / ...

Hopefully Intel guys will get this sorted soon-ish and all sent to stable@


Reverting commit 06eb547c4ae4 ("iwlwifi: mvm: fix scan config command
size") seems to fix this issue  until proper solution is found.

This reverts commit 06eb547c4ae4382e70d556ba213d13c95ca1801b.
