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 4.12.5 upstream stable
patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
kernel as well.
git://git.kernel.org/
TEST CASE: TBD
The following patches from the 4.12.5 stable release shall be
applied:
jfs: Don't clear SGID when inheriting ACLs
ALSA: fm801: Initialize chip after IRQ handler is registered
ALSA: hda - Add missing NVIDIA GPU codec IDs to patch table
ALSA: hda - Add mute led support for HP ProBook 440 G4
parisc: Prevent TLB speculation on flushed pages on CPUs that only support
equivalent aliases
parisc: Extend disabled preemption in copy_user_page
parisc: Suspend lockup detectors before system halt
powerpc/pseries: Fix of_node_put() underflow during reconfig remove
mmc: sunxi: Keep default timing phase settings for new timing mode
NFS: invalidate file size when taking a lock.
NFSv4.1: Fix a race where CB_NOTIFY_LOCK fails to wake a waiter
scripts/dtc: dtx_diff - update include dts paths to match build
crypto: brcm - Fix SHA3-512 algorithm failure
crypto: brcm - remove BCM_PDC_MBOX dependency in Kconfig
crypto: authencesn - Fix digest_null crash
KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Enable TM before accessing TM registers
KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Fix host crash on changing HPT size
dm integrity: fix inefficient allocation of journal space
