Public bug reported: 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: v4.4.230 upstream stable release from git://git.kernel.org/ btrfs: cow_file_range() num_bytes and disk_num_bytes are same btrfs: fix data block group relocation failure due to concurrent scrub mm: fix swap cache node allocation mask EDAC/amd64: Read back the scrub rate PCI register on F15h mm/slub: fix stack overruns with SLUB_STATS usb: usbtest: fix missing kfree(dev->buf) in usbtest_disconnect kgdb: Avoid suspicious RCU usage warning crypto: af_alg - fix use-after-free in af_alg_accept() due to bh_lock_sock() sched/rt: Show the 'sched_rr_timeslice' SCHED_RR timeslice tuning knob in milliseconds hwmon: (max6697) Make sure the OVERT mask is set correctly hwmon: (acpi_power_meter) Fix potential memory leak in acpi_power_meter_add() virtio-blk: free vblk-vqs in error path of virtblk_probe() i2c: algo-pca: Add 0x78 as SCL stuck low status for PCA9665 Revert "ALSA: usb-audio: Improve frames size computation" SMB3: Honor 'seal' flag for multiuser mounts SMB3: Honor persistent/resilient handle flags for multiuser mounts cifs: Fix the target file was deleted when rename failed.
