** Description changed:
- 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.
+ == SRU Justification ==
+ The following commits needed to be added to the 4.10 and 4.4 kernels
+ for stable operation of r8192e_pci driver. 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.
