Public bug reported: SRU Justification
Impact: The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar in scope to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to demonstrably fix a bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream by originating either directly from Linus' tree or in a minimally backported form of that patch. The 3.13.11-ckt28 upstream stable patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu kernel as well. git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/linux.git TEST CASE: TBD The following patches are in the 3.13.11-ckt28 stable release: USB: whiteheat: fix potential null-deref at probe dcache: Handle escaped paths in prepend_path vfs: Test for and handle paths that are unreachable from their mnt_root sctp: fix race on protocol/netns initialization [media] v4l: omap3isp: Fix sub-device power management code [media] rc-core: fix remove uevent generation xtensa: fix threadptr reload on return to userspace ARM: OMAP2+: DRA7: clockdomain: change l4per2_7xx_clkdm to SW_WKUP mac80211: enable assoc check for mesh interfaces PCI: Add dev_flags bit to access VPD through function 0 PCI: Add VPD function 0 quirk for Intel Ethernet devices usb: dwc3: ep0: Fix mem corruption on OUT transfers of more than 512 bytes serial: 8250_pci: Add support for Pericom PI7C9X795[1248] KVM: MMU: fix validation of mmio page fault auxdisplay: ks0108: fix refcount devres: fix devres_get() iio: adis16400: Fix adis16448 gyroscope scale iio: Add inverse unit conversion macros iio: adis16480: Fix scale factors iio: industrialio-buffer: Fix iio_buffer_poll return value iio: event: Remove negative error code from iio_event_poll NFSv4: don't set SETATTR for O_RDONLY|O_EXCL unshare: Unsharing a thread does not require unsharing a vm ASoC: adav80x: Remove .read_flag_mask setting from adav80x_regmap_config drivers: usb :fsl: Implement Workaround for USB Erratum A007792 drivers: usb: fsl: Workaround for USB erratum-A005275 serial: 8250: don't bind to SMSC IrCC IR port staging: comedi: adl_pci7x3x: fix digital output on PCI-7230 blk-mq: fix buffer overflow when reading sysfs file of 'pending' xtensa: fix kernel register spilling NFS: nfs_set_pgio_error sometimes misses errors NFS: Fix a NULL pointer dereference of migration recovery ops for v4.2 client usb: host: ehci-sys: delete useless bus_to_hcd conversion USB: symbolserial: Use usb_get_serial_port_data USB: ftdi_sio: Added custom PID for CustomWare products HID: usbhid: Fix the check for HID_RESET_PENDING in hid_io_error eCryptfs: Invalidate dcache entries when lower i_nlink is zero libxfs: readahead of dir3 data blocks should use the read verifier xfs: Fix xfs_attr_leafblock definition arm64: kconfig: Move LIST_POISON to a safe value Btrfs: check if previous transaction aborted to avoid fs corruption DRM - radeon: Don't link train DisplayPort on HPD until we get the dpcd rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Add new device ID rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: Add new device ID of/address: Don't loop forever in of_find_matching_node_by_address(). drivercore: Fix unregistration path of platform devices xfs: return errors from partial I/O failures to files IB/qib: Change lkey table allocation to support more MRs tg3: Fix temperature reporting drm/i915: Always mark the object as dirty when used by the GPU Add radeon suspend/resume quirk for HP Compaq dc5750.
