Subject: Fwd: Dell XPS 13 ath10k_pci firmware crashed!

Hi,

I notice a regression report on Bugzilla [1]. Quoting from it:

> Beginning with kernel 6.2.15-300.fc38.x86_64 and continuing through 6.3.7-200.fc38.x86_64, the wifi connection fails periodically with these log messages:

See Bugzilla for the full thread.

Unfortunately, the reporter can't bisect this regression (he only tries
distribution kernels instead).

Anyway, I'm adding it to regzbot (as mainline regression because v6.2.x
has already EOL):

#regzbot introduced: v6.2..v6.3 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217549
#regzbot title: ath10k_pci firmware crashed on Dell XPS 13

Thanks.
