This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- zesty' to 'verification-done-zesty'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-zesty' to 'verification-failed-zesty'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

They are already in Xenial because they came in with upstream stable updates. However, upstream v4.10 is EOL so these commits are being submitted via SRU request. All four commits are in mainline as of v4.12-rc2. == Fixes == baabd567f87b ("staging: rtl8192e: rtl92e_fill_tx_desc fix write to mapped out memory.") 867510bde14e ("staging: rtl8192e: fix 2 byte alignment of register BSSIDR.") 90be652c9f15 ("staging: rtl8192e: rtl92e_get_eeprom_size Fix read size of EPROM_CMD.") 95d93e271d92 ("staging: rtl8192e: GetTs Fix invalid TID 7 warning.") == Regression Potential == These commits were also cc'd to stable and accepted, so additional upstream review was performed. == Test Case == A test kernel was built with these patches and tested by the original bug reporter. The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug. The following commits needed to be added to 4.10 and 4.8 kernels for stable operation of r8192e_pci driver. They are already in 4.11 and in 4.4. commit baabd567f87be05330faa5140f72a91960e7405a upstream staging: rtl8192e: rtl92e_fill_tx_desc fix write to mapped out memory. commit 867510bde14e7b7fc6dd0f50b48f6753cfbd227a upstream. staging: rtl8192e: fix 2 byte alignment of register BSSIDR. commit 90be652c9f157d44b9c2803f902a8839796c090d upstream. staging: rtl8192e: rtl92e_get_eeprom_size Fix read size of EPROM_CMD. commit 95d93e271d920dfda369d4740b1cc1061d41fe7f upstream. staging: rtl8192e: GetTs Fix invalid TID 7 warning.
