M. Al-Taei, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and trying to help make Ubuntu better. However, the mainline kernel is not a software package provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. For more on this, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds#Does_the_kernel_team_support_the_mainline_kernel_builds.3F . Because of this the Ubuntu project can not support or fix your particular bug. Please report this bug to the provider of the software package. Thanks!

Now happening for Ubuntu kernels (see duplicate list).
