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 following upstream
stable patches should be included in the Ubuntu kernel:
* CDC-NCM: handle incomplete transfer of MTU
* net: fix data-race in neigh_event_send()
* NFC: fdp: fix incorrect free object
* NFC: st21nfca: fix double free
* qede: fix NULL pointer deref in __qede_remove()
* nfc: netlink: fix double device reference drop
* ALSA: bebob: fix to detect configured source of sampling clock for Focusrite Saffire Pro i/o series
* ALSA: hda/ca0132 - Fix possible workqueue stall
* mm, vmstat: hide /proc/pagetypeinfo from normal users
* dump_stack: avoid the livelock of the dump_lock
* perf tools: Fix time sorting
* drm/radeon: fix si_enable_smc_cac() failed issue
* ceph: fix use-after-free in __ceph_remove_cap()
* iio: imu: adis16480: make sure provided frequency is positive
* netfilter: nf_tables: Align nft_expr private data to 64-bit
* netfilter: ipset: Fix an error code in ip_set_sockfn_get()
* can: usb_8dev: fix use-after-free on disconnect
* can: c_can: c_can_poll(): only read status register after status IRQ
* can: peak_usb: fix a potential out-of-sync while decoding packets
* can: gs_usb: gs_can_open(): prevent memory leak
* can: peak_usb: fix slab info leak
* drivers: usb: usbip: Add missing break statement to switch
* configfs: fix a deadlock in configfs_symlink()
* PCI: tegra: Enable Relaxed Ordering only for Tegra20 & Tegra30
* scsi: qla2xxx: fixup incorrect usage of host_byte
* scsi: lpfc: Honor module parameter lpfc_use_adisc
* ipvs: move old_secure_tcp into struct netns_ipvs
* bonding: fix unexpected IFF_BONDING bit unset
* usb: fsl: Check memory resource before releasing it
* usb: gadget: udc: atmel: Fix interrupt storm in FIFO mode.
* usb: gadget: composite: Fix possible double free memory bug
* usb: gadget: configfs: fix concurrent issue between composite APIs
* perf/x86/amd/ibs: Fix reading of the IBS OpData register and thus precise RIP validity
* USB: Skip endpoints with 0 maxpacket length
* scsi: qla2xxx: stop timer in shutdown path
* net: hisilicon: Fix "Trying to free already-free IRQ"
* NFSv4: Don't allow a cached open with a revoked delegation
* igb: Fix constant media auto sense switching when no cable is connected
* e1000: fix memory leaks
* can: flexcan: disable completely the ECC mechanism
* mm/filemap.c: don't initiate writeback if mapping has no dirty pages
* cgroup,writeback: don't switch wbs immediately on dead wbs if the memcg is dead
* net: prevent load/store tearing on sk->sk_stamp
* Linux 4.4.201
* UBUNTU: upstream stable to v4.4.201
