Hi there,

First of all, thank you very much for the fantastic
systemd-reload-firmware-service script. I use this to produce a publicly
distributed SuseStudio spin, and it's very important for my project. 

I've been systemd-reload-firmware-service successfully with SuseStudio on
openSUSE Leap 42.1 appliances. But now I am trying to build SuseStudio
appliances based on the Tumbleweed repos. The appliances successfully build and
boot, but the live images don't have Intel WiFI working out of the box.
However, if I manually "modprobe -r iwlwifi" and then "modprobe iwlwifi", it
starts working correctly. It appears that something in the journalctl output
has changed for Tumbleweed, which is now messing up the grep and sed magic you
have in your script. 

I'm not sure if this is only related to the iwlwifi module or if it affects
other brands of WiFI too, but I have tried it on three laptops with Intel WiFI,
and they all fail to automatically enable WiFI during live boot.

I am attaching my journalctl, the output of reload-firmware, and some debugging
so you can see the wrong values of the variables.

Thanks a lot for your help!
