We ship /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-6000-4.ucode in linux-firmware, which is
also what the module advertises:
$ modinfo iwlwifi|grep 6000
firmware: iwlwifi-6000g2b-6.ucode
firmware: iwlwifi-6000g2a-5.ucode
firmware: iwlwifi-6000-4.ucode
This is what udev's userspace helper is looking at, so that finds the
file just fine.
The interesting question here is why the kernel wants to load requests
iwlwifi-6000-5.ucode. I. e. where does the -5 come from? It seems the
in-kernel loader and the "firmware:" module field are doing something
different?
