The v4.2.8-ckt10 upstream stable patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu kernel as well. git://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/linux/+git/linux- stable-ckt TEST CASE: TBD The following patches from the v4.2.8-ckt10 stable release shall be applied: Linux 4.2.8-ckt10 RDMA/iw_cxgb4: Fix bar2 virt addr calculation for T4 chips cxgbi: fix uninitialized flowi6 net/mlx5e: Fix MLX5E_100BASE_T define ARM: EXYNOS: Properly skip unitialized parent clock in power domain on mm: update min_free_kbytes from khugepaged after core initialization batman-adv: Fix broadcast/ogm queue limit on a removed interface batman-adv: Check skb size before using encapsulated ETH+VLAN header batman-adv: Reduce refcnt of removed router when updating route net/mlx4_en: fix spurious timestamping callbacks jme: Fix device PM wakeup API usage jme: Do not enable NIC WoL functions on S0 parisc: fix a bug when syscall number of tracee is __NR_Linux_syscalls x86/tsc: Read all ratio bits from MSR_PLATFORM_INFO mm, cma: prevent nr_isolated_* counters from going negative writeback: Fix performance regression in wb_over_bg_thresh() x86/sysfb_efi: Fix valid BAR address range check ARC: Add missing io barriers to io{read,write}{16,32}be() MAINTAINERS: Remove asterisk from EFI directory names drm/amdgpu: make sure vertical front porch is at least 1 drm/radeon: make sure vertical front porch is at least 1 tracing: Don't display trigger file for events that can't be enabled drm/amdgpu: set metadata pointer to NULL after freeing.
