I've attached the bionic SRU patch to start the processing for the bionic release.
@Douglas & @Simon - I've also backported the patch to 16.04 and loaded it into the same PPA previously used [0]. I'll upload the Xenial patch for for SRU when I get some feedback on the patch itself. Its the same patch so I expect it to work fine, but would like your input on the 4.4 kernel, the 4.13 kernel (the current hwe kernel), and the 4.15 kernel (the current hwe-edge). Soon the 4.15 kernel will become the hwe kernel, but I don't want to break any users still on 4.13. Thanks for your help & feedback testing the patches!

The linux-image kernel package on Ubuntu 18.04 is currently linux- image-4.15.0-13 [Test Case] * apt install network-manager-l2tp-gnome * Add new VPN connection via network manager * establish vpn connection [Regression Potential] * For Bionic, there is none. The xl2tpd daemon does not work without the patch on the standard bionic kernel. * For Xenial w/ the 4.15 HWE kernel there is no risk. * For Xenial w/ the stock 4.4 kernel there is minimal risk as the code is pulling values that are not valid on the 4.4 kernel by defafult.
