gene, thank you for your comments. Regarding them 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1067895/comments/10 :

Thank you for clearing this up.

>"A far as that bisection analysis with of those kernels is concerned,
it's quite a few kernels to try. BTW, can't we exclude some of them?
Like 3.3 and 3.5 are marked as EOL on kernel.prg, so I don't see any
reason trying any of those."

The fact a kernel is marked EOL on kernel.org is not a reason to not
test it. One reverse bisects for the purposes of narrowing down the
commit space in the fastest way possible. For more on reverse bisecting
and it's benefits, please see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection .

>"As with the other ones, why would one try an earlier version, say
3.6.1 after 3.6.5"

See above. Once the commit is identified, ideally the commit is applied
verbatim to the downstream Ubuntu kernel so your problem is resolved.

>", since it's almost always recommended to upgrade to the newest
version anyways?"

The fact one should be using the newest downstream Ubuntu kernel
available for critical and security updates has nothing to do with
reverse bisecting.

>"However, if it is so important to find out where this particular fix
was committed, I could instead try working through my local git
repository. Switching, say, to 3.2 and comparing what it misses from the
rtlwifi commits of master and other working branches. I'll try that, if
you don't mind."

While what you choose to do is up to you, I have provided you the
fastest method to finding the commit that fixes your problem.

So, consulting http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ we now have:
v3.2.33-precise/
v3.3-precise/
v3.3-rc1-precise/
v3.3-rc2-precise/
v3.3-rc3-precise/
v3.3-rc4-precise/
v3.3-rc5-precise/
v3.3-rc6-precise/
v3.3-rc7-precise/
v3.3.1-precise/
v3.3.2-precise/
v3.3.3-precise/
v3.3.4-precise/
v3.3.5-precise/
v3.3.6-precise/
v3.3.7-precise/
v3.3.8-quantal/
v3.4-precise/
v3.4-quantal/
v3.4-rc1-precise/
v3.4-rc2-precise/
v3.4-rc3-precise/
v3.4-rc4-precise/
v3.4-rc5-precise/
v3.4-rc6-precise/
v3.4-rc7-precise/
v3.4.1-quantal/
v3.4.2-quantal/
v3.4.3-quantal/
v3.4.4-quantal/
v3.4.5-quantal/
v3.4.6-quantal/
v3.4.7-quantal/
v3.4.8-quantal/
v3.4.9-quantal/
v3.4.10-quantal/
v3.4.11-quantal/
v3.4.12-quantal/
v3.4.13-quantal/
v3.4.14-quantal/
v3.4.15-quantal/
v3.4.16-quantal/
v3.4.17-quantal/

Hence, could you please test http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/v3.4-rc2-precise/ ?

Once complete, could you continue to reverse bisect mainline kernel
versions until the last bad upstream kernel version, followed
consecutively in version by the first good one is found?

Thank you for your understanding.
