Bug Description
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 4.4.154 upstream stable
patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
kernel as well.

The following patches from the 4.4.154 stable release shall be applied:
* sched/sysctl: Check user input value of sysctl_

Modified "usb/phy: fix PPC64 build errors in phy-fsl-usb.c". It looks like we already got some protection but using CONFIG_PPC instead of CONFIG_PPC32 which seems pointless as CONFIG_PPC sounds like being set in both 32/64bit cases.
Skipped "fscache: Allow cancelled operations to be enqueued" and "cachefiles: Fix refcounting bug in backing-file read monitoring" as they are already applied for bug #1774336.
Skipped "cachefiles: Wait rather than BUG'ing on "Unexpected object collision"" as it is already applied for bug #1776254.
Skipped "x86/spectre: Add missing family 6 check to microcode check" because this changes the bad microcode check which we have dropped.
Skipped "s390/pci: fix out of bounds access during irq setup" because it is already applied for bug #1790480.
