  Please backport vmd suspend/resume patches to 16.04 hwe

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Artful:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  == SRU Justification ==

  This bug was opened to request commit e2b1820bd5d0 be backported from 4.14 to
  the 4.13 kernel in Artful.  Without this patch, servers with VMD enabled 
  run into issues suspending and resuming.

  Commit e2b1820bd5d0962d6f271b0d47c3a0e38647df2f is in mainline as of
  v4.14-rc1.


  [Fixes]

      PCI: vmd: Free up IRQs on suspend path

  [Impact]
  Without this patch, servers with VMD enabled may run into issues suspending 
and resuming

  [Test Case]
  Typically this manifests by having many other devices having acquired IRQ 
resources competing with VMD. Without the patch, the server may fail to suspend 
when it can't move the IRQs to core 0 because of the lack of IRQs available on 
core 0.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low. This only affects one component of one arch and affects the non-typical 
use-case of suspending a server
