With recent kernel 5.16.0-0.rc2 commit 5d9f4cf36721 the behavior has
been changed for the better, but the WiFi adapter still works with
bugs.

Now spontaneous endless reboots do not occur. But if I restart the
laptop instead of shutting down, then the next time I boot, the WiFi
adapter disappears. In order for the WiFi adapter to appear again, it
needs to turn off the laptop and then turn on. Can this be somehow
fixed?
lspci output after reboot and boot after shutdown is different:
