As this bug only affects the infrequently used RTL8192EE and only under low-memory conditions, it has taken a long time for the bug to show up. The bug was reported on the linux-wireless mailing list and also at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/ as bug #1527603 (kernel crashes due to rtl8192ee driver on ubuntu 15.10).
