Thanks for the report.
Since upstream e0c1ca236e28 ("wifi: iwlwifi: honor the enable_ini
value") in 6.7-rc1 and backported to 6.6.2, 6.5.12 and 6.1.63 the
values of enable_ini are honoured.
Please have a look where in /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf you have
enable_ini=N. I suspect it is a customized own file. The value is not
correct and should be either 1 or 0 here.
Regards,
Salvatore
