It looks like all rtl88xx drivers are having problem with 5.3.1 kernel. I am looking into this to see if we need a patch to handle a kernel API change. @capoeira: this driver is old, and Edimax just repackages the Realtek driver (and adds its ID).

there seams to be an oficial driver? https://www.edimax.com/edimax/mw/cufiles/files/download/Driver_Utility/EW-7811UTC_UAC_DAC_USC_Linux_Driver_1.0.2.4.zip

Hi Guys I have been testing this version of the driver will multiple APs. We have noticed a slow degradation on DL throughout as we add the number of APs, the UL throughput is not affected. For example with 1 AP I get 100 mbps (on a 20 mhz channel). With 6 APs active I only get 30 mbps (even although there is nothing happening on the other APs). Has anyone else noticed this issue (Kernel 4.14) Thanks Arthur

I have now pulled the changes from Gordboy. Many thanks!

@zebulon and @Darnor

Made change adding vendor command policy as suggested by @Darnor, and another minor compiler warning fix.

Tested on kernel 5.3rc7 and all is good thus far.

Source is now ready to fork.

Doesn't work with 5.3rc3.d0804.ge21a712 on Manjaro.

Getting a kernel stack trace:

here: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/net/wireless/core.c#L868

here: https://github.com/zebulon2/rtl8812au-driver-5.2.20/blob/master/os_dep/linux/os_intfs.c#L1602

and finally here: https://github.com/zebulon2/rtl8812au-driver-5.2.20/blob/master/os_dep/linux/os_intfs.c#L3001

Looking at git blame the following commit seems to be the culprit:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/901bb9891855164fdcfcfdd9c3d25bcc800d3f5b

I would try to fix it myself but I currently don't have enough time, so hopefully someone (maybe @gordboy or @zebulon) can patch it.

@astewartau: can you please send the log with the error message, and take care you are using the latest git sources.
