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:

       v5.18.1 upstream stable release
       from git://git.kernel.org/

random: insist on random_get_entropy() existing in order to simplify
random: do not use batches when !crng_ready()
random: use first 128 bits of input as fast init
random: do not pretend to handle premature next security model
random: order timer entropy functions below interrupt functions
random: do not use input pool from hard IRQs

siphash: use one source of truth for siphash permutations
random: use symbolic constants for crng_init states
random: avoid initializing twice in credit race
random: move initialization out of reseeding hot path
random: remove ratelimiting for in-kernel unseeded randomness
random: use proper jiffies comparison macro
random: handle latent entropy and command line from random_init()
random: credit architectural init the exact amount
random: use static branch for crng_ready()
random: remove extern from functions in header
random: use proper return types on get_random_{int,long}_wait()
random: make consistent use of buf and len
random: move initialization functions out of hot pages
random: move randomize_page() into mm where it belongs
random: unify batched entropy implementations
random: convert to using fops->read_iter()
random: convert to using fops->write_iter()
random: wire up fops->splice_{read,write}_iter()
random: check for signals after page of pool writes
ACPI: sysfs: Fix BERT error region memory mapping
ALSA: ctxfi: Add SB046x PCI ID
