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:
4.4.159 upstream stable release
from git://git.
The following patches will be applied:
* NFC: Fix possible memory corruption when handling SHDLC I-Frame commands
* NFC: Fix the number of pipes
* ASoC: cs4265: fix MMTLR Data switch control
* ALSA: bebob: use address returned by kmalloc() instead of kernel stack for
streaming DMA mapping
* ALSA: emu10k1: fix possible info leak to userspace on SNDRV_EMU10K1_
* platform/x86: alienware-wmi: Correct a memory leak
* xen/netfront: don't bug in case of too many frags
* xen/x86/vpmu: Zero struct pt_regs before calling into sample handling code
* ring-buffer: Allow for rescheduling when removing pages
* mm: shmem.c: Correctly annotate new inodes for lockdep
* gso_segment: Reset skb->mac_len after modifying network header
* ipv6: fix possible use-after-free in ip6_xmit()
* net/appletalk: fix minor pointer leak to userspace in SIOCFINDIPDDPRT
* net: hp100: fix always-true check for link up state
* neighbour: confirm neigh entries when ARP packet is received
* ocfs2: fix ocfs2 read block panic
* drm/nouveau/
* tty: vt_ioctl: fix potential Spectre v1
* ext4: avoid divide by zero fault when deleting corrupted inline directories
* ext4: recalucate superblock checksum after updating free blocks/inodes
* ext4: fix online resize's handling of a too-small final block group
* ext4: fix online resizing for bigalloc file systems with a 1k block size
* ext4: don't mark mmp buffer head dirty
* arm64: Add trace_hardirqs_off annotation in ret_to_user
* HID: sony: Update device ids
* HID: sony: Support DS4 dongle
* iw_cxgb4: only allow 1 flush on user qps
* Linux 4.4.159

Minor context adjustment on "mm: shmem.c: Correctly annotate new inodes for lockdep".
Skipped "scsi: target: iscsi: Use hex2bin instead of a re-implementation" because it was already applied (slightly different name) for CVE-2018-14633.
