[Bug 1397448] Re: Unstable Wifi

 

Gennaro Langella, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect from
kernel 3.13 to 3.18-rc7 in order to identify the last bad commit,
followed immediately by the first good one. Once this commit has been
identified, then it may be reviewed as a candidate for backporting into
your release. Could you please do this following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection#How_do_I_reverse_bisect_the_upstream_kernel.3F
?  Please note, finding adjacent kernel versions is not fully commit
bisecting.

Thank you for your understanding.
