The following patch was NOT applied: * nvme: Fix memory order on async queue deletion
The reason is that this patch fixes a race condition in function async_completion() in drivers/nvme/host/pci.c . However, this function had been removed entirely in commit c33e9323c87556f335378113837cab4aab7d8a85 as part of http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1531539 Therefore I believe that patch is no longer necessary for Xenial and so I skipped it. ** 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.
