I understand that reverting to 21 can solve severe bugs, but since 21 reverting (experienced in Zesty with 164.1 and now in Artful with 165 versions of linux-firmware package) it seems that my connection is sometimes poor (web pages loading hangs, e.g.). With 22 I do not see such hangs or slowdowns.
Maybe it caused too a severe kernel hang (CPU lockup) that I got two times in two days in Zesty without any other critical packages upgrading except linux-firmware. But clearly that's hypothetical, although I never got any severe crash like this before during Zesty's alpha-beta-release lifetime. For people like me that do not like 21, move : https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/iwlwifi-8000C-22.ucode to : /lib/firmware and reboot.
