Title:
  Wi-Fi 6E does not work in Canada with Intel AX210

Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux-firmware source package in Kinetic:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux-firmware source package in Lunar:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Intel has been adding support for Wi-Fi 6E (6GHz band) to additional
  countries as they get regulatory approval.

  With the base install of Ubuntu 22.10, I do not have 6GHz support
  while in Canada, and have confirmed with 'iw reg get'.

  Intel has released an updated pnvm file to support more countries:

  After copying the latest iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0-72.ucode and iwlwifi-
  ty-a0-gf-a0.pnvm from
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-
  firmware.git and rebooting I now have full support:

  $ iw reg get
