'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'

I couldn't boot the computer with that kernel at all.

Here's info about the installation when I tried to install the linux img. and header:

Errors were encountered while processing:
 linux-headers-4.7.0-040700rc1-generic

I could install the 'all' header tho, but after updating grub and
reboot, the computer did not even start. Here's the error msg.

Error getting socket: Address family not supported by protocol
Error initializing udev control socket
could not listen on fds: invalid argument

Gave up waiting for root device.
Common problems:
-Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
-Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
-Check root= (did the system wait for right device?)
-Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ld /dev)

ALERT! UUID=e460757b-3e46-44do-9646-dce4333323de does not exist.
Dropping to a shell

Reverting back to kernel 4.4.0.22 worked and with the linux firmware
from here:http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-firmware
/linux-firmware_1.158_all.deb it works as it should.

** Description changed:

  I've been trying to get my Qualcomm Atheros QCA6164 (168:0041 rev20) to
  work with diffrent firmwares without success. I've been testing Kalle
  Valos and atondvals firmware with no luck. Kalle Valos firmware enables
  wifi over 2,4GHz only, and not on every router for me. Last night I
  tried the new linux-firmwaren from:
  
  "http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-firmware/linux-
  firmware_1.157_all.deb"
  
  That didn't work either.
  
  I did install it, rebooted only to see the WiFi icon flash, so I tried
  "systemctl restart NetworkManager.service" just to see the WiFiicon
  falsh again and then the networkmanager crashed compleatly. so I ran the
  command again to get it back up but still no WiFi.
  
  Here is the dmesg for the ath10k

- An update for this card would be nice :) I'll gladly help testing it and see if you provide instructions.
