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 following upstream
stable patches should be included in the Ubuntu kernel:
v4.4.253 upstream stable release
from git://git.kernel.org/
ASoC: dapm: remove widget from dirty list on free
mm/hugetlb: fix potential missing huge page size info
ext4: fix bug for rename with RENAME_WHITEOUT
ARC: build: add boot_targets to PHONY
ethernet: ucc_geth: fix definition and size of ucc_geth_tx_global_pram
arch/arc: add copy_user_page() to <asm/page.h> to fix build error on ARC
misdn: dsp: select CONFIG_BITREVERSE
net: ethernet: fs_enet: Add missing MODULE_LICENSE
ACPI: scan: add stub acpi_create_platform_device() for !CONFIG_ACPI
ARM: picoxcell: fix missing interrupt-parent properties
Input: uinput - avoid FF flush when destroying device
dump_common_audit_data(): fix racy accesses to ->d_name
NFS: nfs_igrab_and_active must first reference the superblock
ext4: fix superblock checksum failure when setting password salt
RDMA/usnic: Fix memleak in find_free_vf_and_create_qp_grp
mm, slub: consider rest of partial list if acquire_slab() fails
net: sunrpc: interpret the return value of kstrtou32 correctly
usb: ohci: Make distrust_firmware param default to false
iio: buffer: Fix demux update
nfsd4: readdirplus shouldn't return parent of export
net: cdc_ncm: correct overhead in delayed_ndp_size
netxen_nic: fix MSI/MSI-x interrupts
rndis_host: set proper input size for OID_GEN_PHYSICAL_MEDIUM request
net: dcb: Validate netlink message in DCB handler
net: dcb: Accept RTM_GETDCB messages carrying set-like DCB commands
net: sit: unregister_netdevice on newlink's error path
rxrpc: Fix handling of an unsupported token type in rxrpc_read()
net: avoid 32 x truesize under-estimation for tiny skbs
spi: cadence: cache reference clock rate during probe
Linux 4.4.253
