Hi,
I installed the latest -proposed kernel image in bionic (HWE variant), but the bug is not fixed there. It looks like it's not merged into the 5.0 kernel there. That's easy to see, because modinfo, still shows the old parameter description:

This is wrong:
auto_delink_en:enable auto delink (int)

According to the kernel patch (https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/9/4/1276) it should be:
auto_delink_en:auto delink mode (0=firmware, 1=software [default]) (int)

To fix the problem I still need the workaround by setting auto_delink_en to "0".
