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:
4.4.212 upstream stable release
from git://git.

Skipped:
* can, slip: Protect tty->disc_data in write_wakeup and close with RCU
* libertas: Fix two buffer overflows at parsing bss
The latter patch was already applied as a slightly modified SAUCE patch:
f41dbb3e UBUNTU: SAUCE: libertas: Fix two buffer overflows at parsing bss descriptor
Also a small conflict in
* bitmap: Add bitmap_alloc(), bitmap_zalloc() and bitmap_free()
because of slightly different #include directives.
