Several WARNINGs after iwlwifi "Microcode SW error detected."

[Tommi Rantala]

Hi,

There was apparently some wifi / firmware problem.
Kernel version is 4.16.0-rc5
Laptop is HP zbook 15 G3.

The recovery worked, and the wifi connection was soon re-established,
but several WARNINGs seen in the logs that don't look good.

Based on journal logs, similar "Microcode SW" errors did not trigger
the warnings in 4.14.x fedora kernels.

Any fixing needed...?
