Public bug reported:

booting PC with USB WLAN stick RTL8192CU attached on kernel 4.4.0-63-generic:
Grub works, entering full disk encryption passphrase works, but when the 
desktop comes up mouse and keyboard (via USB) are dead and the desktop also.

booting the PC without the stick attached works fine, but as soon as it
is attached (see syslog) mouse, keyboard and the desktop itself are dead
(checked by opening terminal and "watch date" - freezes, with desktop
still visible).

problem is resolved by booting former kernel 4.4.0-59-generic.
