This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- zesty' to 'verification-done-zesty'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-zesty' to 'verification-failed-zesty'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

[Test Case] Use iperf to confirm functionality, and no obvious loss of performance. = Before = Duplex: $ iperf -c <targetIP> -P 8 -d -t 30 941 Mbits/sec Simplex: $ iperf -c <targetIP> -P 8 -t 30 942 Mbits/sec = After = Duplex: $ iperf -c <targetIP> -P 8 -d -t 30 942 Mbits/sec Simplex: $ iperf -c <targetIP> -P 8 -t 30 942 Mbits/sec [Regression Risk] Changes are restricted to the hns driver, which is only used on HiSilicon SoCs. All changes are clean cherry-picks from upstream, so any regressions will have upstream support.
