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 a mainline/stable Linux tree or a minimally backported form of that patch. The v4.4.52 upstream stable patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu kernel as well. git://git.kernel.org/ TEST CASE: TBD The following patches from the v4.4.52 stable release shall be applied: net/llc: avoid BUG_ON() in skb_orphan() packet: fix races in fanout_add() packet: Do not call fanout_release from atomic contexts irda: Fix lockdep annotations in hashbin_delete(). ip: fix IP_CHECKSUM handling net: socket: fix recvmmsg not returning error from sock_error tty: serial: msm: Fix module autoload USB: serial: mos7840: fix another NULL-deref at open USB: serial: cp210x: add new IDs for GE Bx50v3 boards USB: serial: ftdi_sio: fix modem-status error handling USB: serial: ftdi_sio: fix extreme low-latency setting USB: serial: ftdi_sio: fix line-status over-reporting USB: serial: spcp8x5: fix modem-status handling USB: serial: opticon: fix CTS retrieval at open USB: serial: ark3116: fix register-accessor error handling x86/platform/goldfish: Prevent unconditional loading goldfish: Sanitize the broken interrupt handler block: fix double-free in the failure path of cgwb_bdi_init() rtlwifi: rtl_usb: Fix for URB leaking when doing ifconfig up/down Revert "usb: chipidea: imx: enable CI_HDRC_SET_NON_ZERO_TTHA" kvm: vmx: ensure VMCS is current while enabling PML Linux 4.4.52 ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Tags added: kernel-stable-tracking-bug ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: + SRU Justification - 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 a mainline/stable Linux tree or + a minimally backported form of that patch.
