Thank you for the reply.

It may be similar problem but I'm not getting
"NULL pointer dereference error" as described in linked issue.

I already created separate bug report at:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D202513

I think this issue may be caused by firmware update for intel 8000
series which could be buggy itself or just uncovered bugs in iwlwifi
driver:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git=
/commit/?id=3D8707ef3313ee0f6737683c93aa2cb1dff6483643

Downgrading linux-firmware package to version before that commit seems
to make this issue go away.
