No, it was easy enough to fix up the context.  I have now queued up:

b914811524fbe9e91fe50845f5d7bd4316b8a6ee iwlagn: allow up to uCode API 6 for 6000 devices
78cbcf2b9dbe0565820dc7721316f9c401000a68 iwlwifi: use correct released ucode version
1ed2ec37b44e86eaa8e0a03b908a39c80f65ee45 iwlwifi: use 6000G2B for 6030 device series
