ver43 does work

I also tried iwlwifi-9000-pu-b0-jf-b0-46.ucode from git
(git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git)
with the same result, however images are different:

git: size 1467952, md5 b0158bcaded550a01f9c446bb7940a9e

Thanks,
Alex.

This problem was solved with the following patch:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11021735/

I have sent it to stable v5.2 and Greg queued it for the next stable
release. Not that v5.1 has reached EOL, so it will probably never get
the fix.
