Thanks Erik. Both of these are good pieces of information, and I agree
that they should be noted somewhere - but I wonder if this might be
getting into too many details to be directly in the release notes. I
kind of like the way we're linking to another page for specific
information for iwlwifi - maybe we could do that here too (wiki or
otherwise)? Of course, if other people would also like to see this
content directly in the release notes I am open to it.
