The iwlwifi driver defines a min-max range of supported firmware
versions. It tries to load the max version and will go down the list
until it finds one it can load. Load failures will show up as -2 errors
in dmesg.

The driver also reports the max version via modinfo, the min version is
not advertised (needs to be looked up in the kernel source).

So for 6.8:

$ uname -r
6.8.0-41-generic
$ modinfo iwlwifi | grep QuZ-a0-hr-b0
firmware:       iwlwifi-QuZ-a0-hr-b0-77.ucode

Which is what gets loaded per your dmesg. So to me this is working as
expected.

You can look at previous kernel logs using 'sudo journalctl -k -b
<negative number>' trying to find the dmesg that you think is
problematic and post it here.
