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 v4.15.6 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 v4.15.6 stable release shall be
applied:

tun: fix tun_napi_alloc_frags() frag allocator
ptr_ring: fail early if queue occupies more than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE
ptr_ring: try vmalloc() when kmalloc() fails
selinux: ensure the context is NUL terminated in security_context_to_sid_core()
