Public bug reported:

Linux firmware git has these new firware revisions that are supported by
the drivers shipped in Ubuntu (and it actually tries to load them):

May  2 20:57:35 t460s kernel: [    2.873419] Intel(R) Wireless WiFi driver for Linux
May  2 20:57:35 t460s kernel: [    2.873422] Copyright(c) 2003- 2015 Intel Corporation
May  2 20:57:35 t460s kernel: [    2.873794] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)
May  2 20:57:35 t460s kernel: [    2.877881] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Unsupported splx structure
May  2 20:57:35 t460s kernel: [    2.878491] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8000C-19.ucode failed with error -2
May  2 20:57:35 t460s kernel: [    2.878504] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8000C-18.ucode failed with error -2
May  2 20:57:35 t460s kernel: [    2.878515] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: Direct firmware load for iwlwifi-8000C-17.ucode failed with error -2
May  2 20:57:35 t460s kernel: [    2.884163] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: loaded firmware version 16.242414.0 op_mode iwlmvm

Adding iwlwifi-8000C-19.ucode works as expected:

[21431.655352] iwlwifi 0000:04:00.0: loaded firmware version 19.313137.0
op_mode iwlmvm

So, please include these new revisions in the Ubuntu package (for xenial
too).
