 The configuration one line below it (looking

Correct.

1. The FW crashes with "NMI_INTERRUPT_UNKNOW". Not interface shows up 
via `ip a`.

2. With iwl_cfg_quz_a0_hr_b0, it works. However, I get 
"NMI_INTERRUPT_UMAC_FATAL " in dmesg. Throughput degardataion not tested.

Please let me know if I should send you more info for further debugging.
