dmesg, sudo lspci -xxxx, .config, result of bisect

Marking as high severity as it directly impacts the user - the user will be wondering why they cannot connect to a wireless network.

Using Arch Linux
Using Linux next-20191122
Using Dell XPS 9370 (i7-8650U, Intel Wireless 8265 [8086:24fd])

Will attach in a zip file: dmesg, sudo lspci -xxxx, .config, result of bisect

At the end of the dmesg, you can see repeated failed attempts to connect - I could not get a single successful connection. On another kernel version (or same kernel version with the culprit patch reversed), on the same computer, the wireless comes straight up without any user intervention.

I have done a bisect. The result was:

I reverse applied the diff of this patch to a clean Linux next-20191122 and the regression disappeared.

I use Intel Wireless 8265 [8086:24fd] (iwlwifi.ko), but there were other network driver modules which were re-generated upon reversing the patch, also.

Can somebody else please reproduce / confirm this regression? I will notify the relevant people by replying to [0] in the mean time, but they probably should not revert it on the basis of testimony by a single person.
