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 : /git.kernel. org/pub/ scm/linux/ kernel/ git/firmware/ linux-firmware. git/plain/ iwlwifi- 8000C-22. ucode
https:/
to :
/lib/firmware
and reboot.
