I am on Debian 10.3 stable i386, running a custom-compiled kernel (I compile weekly, when new rc releases drop).

I keep the following USB wifi dongle connected to this machine:

ID 050d:1102 Belkin Components F7D1102 N150/Surf Micro Wireless Adapter v1000 [Realtek RTL8188CUS]


---

The problem: 

As of 5.6.0-rc6, booting up with the dongle connected returns a number of dmesg complaints:

--- end ---

Occasionally, this results in a timeout while trying to reach network.target (systemd). 

Afterwards, there's endless dmesg noise Re: rtl8192cu:

There are large swaths of this in dmesg.

Please bisect this problem. No one else has reported it, thus it may depend on 
some specific configuration of your system.

Was 5.6.0-rc5 OK?
