I can confirm that the Noble debdiff matches the v88 version that was
uploaded to Oracular and also matches the release/core88 upstream branch
(plus the Debian/Ubuntu additions in debian/)

So this is essentially a full-version backport from Oracular
(1:0~88.12113-gitd7d581b7-0ubuntu1) to Noble, which also happens to
change the versioning scheme. I think the new versioning scheme is
sensible. But the fact that this is a full-version backport wasn't very
clear to me, at first. (It would be nice to have this clearly stated in
debian/changelog)


I couldn't find any SRU exception for backport-iwlwifi-dkms, and I'm unclear of 
how it would match the SRU policy. But I see precedence of full-version 
backports to Jammy/Focal/Bionic. So I'll leave it to the SRU team to make a 
call about accepting/rejecting it from the queue.

Otherwise, lgtm and I've sponsored it to Noble and unsubscribed ~ubuntu-
sponsors.
