Dear Maintainer,

    * What led up to the situation?

    Regular wpasupplicant + backports kernel updates

    * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
      ineffective)?

    Removing custom module parameters for iwlwifi module did not solve problem
    Configuring interface manually using the wlp36s0 device worked

    * What was the outcome of this action?

    Card was only able to associate with WLAN and connect successfully when
    enabled manually

    * What outcome did you expect instead?

    Connection to WLAN should have Just Worked as it has in the past
