Hardware Certification have completed testing this -proposed kernel. No regressions were observed, results are available here: http://people.canonical.com/~hwcert/sru-testing/bionic/4.15.0-34.37/bionic-proposed-published.html

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza (kleber-souza)]

There are a few non-verified bugs for bionic/linux, but given that they are not critical I'm marking verification-testing as 'Fix Released'.
