If further testing is needed, send me the updated kernel files and I’ll
install on my PC and test.

 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-
disco' to 'verification-done-disco'. If the problem still exists, change
the tag 'verification-needed-disco' to 'verification-failed-disco'.

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. Thank you!

Title:
  p54usb module in linux-modules-extra-5.0.0-23-generic does not work

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Disco:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Eoan:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  == SRU Justification ==
  User report that the p54usb driver will crash when trying to load it on 5.0 
kernel for a Dell Wireless 1450 Dual-band (802.11a/b/g) USB 2.0 adapter. This 
was caused by commit e3554197 (p54: Use skb_peek_tail() instead of direct head 
pointer accesses.)

  == Fix ==
  * 1645ab93 (p54: fix crash during initialization)

  This patch added a check for target_skb to determine where to queue the 
buffer. It can be cherry-picked into Disco.
  Eoan got this patch from v5.2.1 upstream stable release update.

  == Test ==
  Test kernel could be found here:
  https://people.canonical.com/~phlin/kernel/lp-1839693-p54usb/

  This issue was reported against Bionic HWE 5.0 kernel, user confirmed
  that the patched B-hwe kernel can fix this issue.

  == Regression Potential ==
  Low, change limited to p54usb driver, patch tested with positive test result.

  == Original Bug Report ==

  I am using the Product: Dell Wireless 1450 Dual-band (802.11a/b/g) USB
  2.0 Adapter

  This relies on the p54usb driver. It works great on kernel 4.18. I
  upgraded to 5.0.0-3 and the device fails to start.

  On the older kernel, things seem good:
