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 4.4.147 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 4.4.147 stable release shall be applied:
* scsi: qla2xxx: Fix ISP recovery on unload
* scsi: qla2xxx: Return error when TMF returns
* genirq: Make force irq threading setup more robust
* nohz: Fix local_timer_
* netlink: Do not subscribe to non-existent groups
* netlink: Don't shift with UB on nlk->ngroups
* netlink: Don't shift on 64 for ngroups
* ACPI / PCI: Bail early in acpi_pci_add_bus() if there is no ACPI handle
* ring_buffer: tracing: Inherit the tracing setting to next ring buffer
* i2c: imx: Fix reinit_completion() use
* Linux 4.4.147
