Bug description:
  [Impact]
  New Intel CyclonePeak Wifi cards require new firmware to enable.

  [Fix]
  To update the firmware we want only, backport the following 2 commits from 
iwlwifi tree for-upstream branch[1], and remove all 9000 series related 
firmwares.
     95a93535 iwlwifi: update -46 firmwares for 22260 and 9000 series
     68040ceb iwlwifi: add firmware for 22260 and update 9000 series -46 
firmwares

  1. git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/linux-
  firmware.git

  [Test Case]
  Verified on AX200NGW & 22560NGW chips & Killer 1653 card, wifi works well.

  [Regression Risk]
  Low. This firmware is 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 or oem-osp1 kernel loads this firmware.
