Hmm, there haven't been any major changes to iwi(4) between 8.2 and
9.0, except what you've already noticed. You could try to remove
iwi(4) from the kernel config and use it as module again, just to make
sure it isn't related to that. Also, all modules iwi(4) depends on are
pulled in automatically, even the firmware modules, no need to load em
through loader.conf.

Can you post dmesg and pciconf -lvc?
