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 v4.4.44 upstream stable
patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
kernel as well.
TEST CASE: TBD
The following patches from the v4.4.44 stable release shall be applied:
Input: xpad - use correct product id for x360w controllers
Input: i8042 - add Pegatron touchpad to noloop table
selftests: do not require bash to run netsocktests testcase
selftests: do not require bash for the generated test
mm: fix devm_memremap_pages crash, use mem_hotplug_{begin, done}
