Installed 18.04 LTS with kernel 4.15 - was required to disabled secure boot mode to get the r8822be wifi module working. Seems unsigned here as well.

[Fix] Add r8822be.ko to signature-inclusion, so it can be signed and be loaded when lockdown is enabled. [Test] Since I can't signed the kernel so it's not tested. [Regression Potential] Low. The driver is maintained by a Realtek guy, so bugs are actually getting fixed. ===Original Bug Report=== Received kernel patch 4.18.0-12 today on my machine. On reboot my WiFi appears to be unavailable. lspci still recognises the installed RTL8822BE card and a reboot back to the previous kernel version (4.18.0-11) seems to resolve the problem. We tried some debugging in the IRC channel and didn't get very far. The r8822be module alias is intact, trying to modprobe it or insert results in a "operation not permitted" error. Modprobing mac80211 and cfg80211 which r8822be depends on did not seem to help.
