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:
* kbuild: add -fcf-protection
* regulator: ti-abb: Fix timeout in ti_abb_
* regulator: pfuze100-regulator: Variable "val" in pfuze100_
* ASoc: rockchip: i2s: Fix RPM imbalance
* ARM: dts: logicpd-
* ARM: mm: fix alignment handler faults under memory pressure
* scsi: sni_53c710: fix compilation error
* scsi: fix kconfig dependency warning related to 53C700_LE_ON_BE
* perf kmem: Fix memory leak in compact_gfp_flags()
* scsi: target: core: Do not overwrite CDB byte 1
* of: unittest: fix memory leak in unittest_data_add
* MIPS: bmips: mark exception vectors as char arrays
* cifs: Fix cifsInodeInfo lock_sem deadlock when reconnect occurs
* dccp: do not leak jiffies on the wire
* net: fix sk_page_frag() recursion from memory reclaim
* net: hisilicon: Fix ping latency when deal with high throughput
* UBUNTU: SAUCE: Revert "net: Zeroing the structure ethtool_wolinfo in ethtool_get_wol()"
* net: Zeroing the structure ethtool_wolinfo in ethtool_get_wol()
* net: add READ_ONCE() annotation in __skb_wait_
* vxlan: check tun_info options_len properly
* net/mlx4_core: Dynamically set guaranteed amount of counters per VF
* inet: stop leaking jiffies on the wire
* net/flow_dissector: switch to siphash
* dmaengine: qcom: bam_dma: Fix resource leak
* ARM: 8051/1: put_user: fix possible data corruption in put_user
* ARM: 8478/2: arm/arm64: add arm-smccc
* ARM: 8479/2: add implementation for arm-smccc

This patch was replaced with the version from the upstream Linux stable branch:
- net: Zeroing the structure ethtool_wolinfo in ethtool_get_wol()
This patch required backporting:
- ARM: 8480/2: arm64: add implementation for arm-smccc
- I had to manually place the hunk in arch/arm64/Kconfig
