Dear iwlwifi developers,
I get a yellow warning in the journal: “iwlwifi 0000:b3:00.0: api flags
index 2 larger than supported by driver”.
The card:
AX3000 Dual Band
PCE-AX3000
Wi-Fi 6 PCI-E Adapter

Ben thinks in http://bugs.debian.org/1035885 that the firmware might
advertise some features that the driver doesn't know how to use.
Perhaps, it's time to upgrade the driver? Or does the aforementioned
yellow message really wants to warn me an admin or a user, and I should
take some action (to avoid what?) ?
Gratefully,
AlMa
