As stated above, it is in the staging directory for kernel 3.16. As I do
not speak for Ubuntu, I have no idea when it will be available for you.

For some reason, this bug report jumps from comment #40 to #73. In #66,
I posted a link for a 64-bit kernel that had this driver built in. For
completeness, the link is http://www.lwfinger.com/realtek_drivers/linux-
image-3.13.9_1.1_amd64.deb. The firmware is at
http://www.lwfinger.com/realtek_drivers/rtl8192eefw.bin.

FYI, kernels implementing this driver are available for several other
distros!
