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 3.8.13.2 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 3.8.13.2 stable release: * Linux 3.8.13.2 * powerpc/pseries: Always enable CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU on PSERIES SMP * powerpc/32bit:Store temporary result in r0 instead of r8 * arm64: don't kill the kernel on a bad esr from el0 * m68k/mac: Fix unexpected interrupt with CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK * iscsi-target: fix heap buffer overflow on error * x86: Allow FPU to be used at interrupt time even with eagerfpu * xfs: kill suid/sgid through the truncate path. * ib_srpt: Call target_sess_cmd_list_set_waiting during shutdown_session * NFSv4: Fix a thinko in nfs4_try_open_cached * drm/radeon: fix card_posted check for newer asics * drm/radeon: fix typo in cu_per_sh on verde * ASoC: cs42l52: fix default value for MASTERA_VOL. * ASoC: wm5110: Correct DSP4R Mixer control name * cgroup: fix a subtle bug in descendant pre-order walk * libata: make ata_exec_internal_sg honor DMADIR * ata_piix: add PCI IDs for Intel BayTail * mm/pagewalk.c: walk_page_range should avoid VM_PFNMAP areas * ocfs2: goto out_unlock if ocfs2_get_clusters_nocache() failed in ocfs2_fiemap() * random: fix accounting race condition with lockless irq entropy_count update * drivers/char/random.c: fix priming of last_data * nilfs2: fix issue of nilfs_set_page_dirty() for page at EOF boundary * drivers/block/brd.c: fix brd_lookup_page() race * drivers/leds/leds-ot200.c: fix error caused by shifted mask * mm/THP: use pmd_populate() to update the pmd with pgtable_t pointer * mm/rmap: rename anon_vma_unlock() => anon_vma_unlock_write() * mm compaction: fix of improper cache flush in migration code * rapidio/tsi721: fix bug in MSI interrupt handling * mm: memcg: remove incorrect VM_BUG_ON for swap cache pages in uncharge * mm: mmu_notifier: re-fix freed page still mapped in secondary MMU * wait: fix false timeouts when using wait_event_timeout() * fat: fix possible overflow for fat_clusters * cifs: fix potential buffer overrun when composing a new options string * ARM: at91/dt: fix macb pinctrl_macb_rmii_mii_alt definition * ACPI / video: Add "Asus UL30A" to ACPI video detect blacklist * perf: net_dropmonitor: Fix symbol-relative addresses * perf: net_dropmonitor: Fix trace parameter order * ARM: 7723/1: crypto: sha1-armv4-large.S: fix SP handling * ARM: 7626/1: arm/crypto: Make asm SHA-1 and AES code Thumb-2 compatible * SUNRPC: Prevent an rpc_task wakeup race * drm/i915: Adding more reserved PCI IDs for Haswell. * drm/i915: add more VLV IDs * TTY: Fix tty miss restart after we turn off flow-control * USB: cxacru: potential underflow in cxacru_cm_get_array() * drm/radeon: Fix VRAM size calculation for VRAM >= 4GB * drm/nvc0/ce: disable ce1 on a number of chipsets * drm/nouveau/bios: fix thinko in ZM_MASK_ADD opcode * virtio_console: fix uapi header * USB: ftdi_sio: Add support for Newport CONEX motor drivers * ath9k_hw: Enable manual peak calibration for AR9485 * ath9k_hw: Use helper routines to simplify ar9003_hw_init_cal() * i2c: designware: always clear interrupts before enabling them * i2c: designware: fix RX FIFO overrun * USB: option: add device IDs for Dell 5804 (Novatel E371) WWAN card * USB: Blacklisted Cinterion's PLxx WWAN Interface * usb: option: Add Telewell TW-LTE 4G * USB: reset resume quirk needed by a hub * usb, chipidea: fix link error when USB_EHCI_HCD is a module * staging: vt6656: [bug] Fix missing spin lock in iwctl_siwpower. * mac80211: fix AP-mode frame matching * cfg80211: fix wiphy_register error path * USB: OHCI: fix logic for scheduling isochronous URBs * USB: fix latency in uhci-hcd and ohci-hcd * USB: UHCI: fix for suspend of virtual HP controller * USB: xHCI: override bogus bulk wMaxPacketSize values * ARM: at91/trivial: fix model name for SAM9X25-EK * ARM: at91/dt: fix macb node declaration * crypto: caam -
