It'll never be preferred to iwn as we don't support the old chipsets in iwlwifi. The entire dance with the commits before this one (being able to adjust the probe return value from LinuxKPI) was that iwlwifi will NOT (yet) be preferred to iwm for chipsets (PCI IDs) iwm supports. iwlwifi will only auto-attach by default for the newer chipsets which are otherwise not supported by other drivers (where iwlwifi is the only option). /bz -- Bjoern A.
