Remove swcrypto50=1 from /etc/modprobe.d/* . You may try not use this option or use swcrypto=1 .
It works. Thank you. But any patch for other users?
I did not check, but I don't think we have swcrypto50=1 as default (if so bug report should be reopened for module-init-tools). Seems you added that option and forgot about that :-) , swcrypto50 is now removed from iwlwifi driver hence module did not load.
