I still see the issue on one of my systems, which is in fact pure Debian
Squeeze updated to recent 3.10.1 kernel and firmware-iwlwifi from
squeeze-backports, but this is not specific to any distribution, I
think.

dmesg logs attached. System information below:

Title:
  iwlwifi: Microcode SW error detected.  Restarting 0x2000000

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This appears to be related to the older bug #200509 on my Lenovo X230.

  Since Jan 4th, I'm seeing errors like:

  Jan  8 14:33:32 lystena kernel: [10462.742627] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0:
  Microcode SW error detected.  Restarting 0x2000000.

  Running:

  $ sudo modprobe -r iwlwifi; sudo modprobe iwlwifi

  ...fixes the issue. Attached appears to be one of the first instances
  of the issue.

  Kernel upgrade I can see in my apt logs:
