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 Linus' tree or in a minimally
backported form of that patch. The 3.19.7 upstream stable
patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
kernel as well.

Linux 3.19.7
The following patch from 3.19.7 was already applied in the Vivid kernel:
powerpc/perf: Cap 64bit userspace backtraces to PERF_MAX_
The following patch from 3.19.7 was dropped as it introduces a regression (see comment #1 and #2):
md/raid0: fix bug with chunksize not a power of 2.

This kernel (3.19.7), as well as the SRU-proposed 3.19.8, is also affected by the ext+raid0+trim "chunksize not a power of 2 patch"-regression that causes severe data loss. So I certainly don't want this patch to land on my trusty system with -lts-vivid kernel. :)
