Hi folks. I'm on bionic and got a desktop notification about "closed drivers may be necessary..." when this SRU landed in bionic-updates.

Just to check: I only really need this package if I'm suffering from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/backport-iwlwifi-dkms/+bug/1859472 ? If I don't really have any issues with wifi, I can ignore the `backport-iwlwifi-dkms` package and use the `iwlwifi` driver that I already have from `linux-modules-extra-5.0.0-37-generic`?

Or is it recommended for everyone to install this package?
