After verifying the config updates caused by this update, I decided to
also drop "Bluetooth: h5: Fix missing dependency on BT_HCIUART_SERDEV".
I cannot see the conversion described in 4.4. Not even the option that
is added as dependency.
** Description changed:
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:
4.4.157 upstream stable release
from git://git.kernel.org/
The following patches will be applied:
* i2c: xiic: Make the start and the byte count write atomic
* i2c: i801: fix DNV's SMBCTRL register offset
* ALSA: hda - Fix cancel_work_sync() stall from jackpoll work
* cfq: Give a chance for arming slice idle timer in case of group_idle
* kthread: Fix use-after-free if kthread fork fails
* kthread: fix boot hang (regression) on MIPS/OpenRISC
* staging: rt5208: Fix a sleep-in-atomic bug in xd_copy_page
* staging/rts5208: Fix read overflow in memcpy
* block,blkcg: use __GFP_NOWARN for best-effort allocations in blkcg
* locking/rwsem-xadd: Fix missed wakeup due to reordering of load
* selinux: use GFP_NOWAIT in the AVC kmem_caches
* locking/osq_lock: Fix osq_lock queue corruption
* ARC: [plat-axs*]: Enable SWAP
* misc: mic: SCIF Fix scif_get_new_port() error handling
* ethtool: Remove trailing semicolon for static inline
- * Bluetooth: h5: Fix missing dependency on BT_HCIUART_SERDEV
* gpio: tegra: Move driver registration to subsys_init level
* scsi: target: fix __transport_register_session locking
* md/raid5: fix data corruption of replacements after originals dropped
* misc: ti-st: Fix memory leak in the error path of probe()
* uio: potential double frees if __uio_register_device() fails
* tty: rocket: Fix possible buffer overwrite on register_PCI
* f2fs: do not set free of current section
* perf tools: Allow overriding MAX_NR_CPUS at compile time
* NFSv4.0 fix client reference leak in callback
* macintosh/via-pmu: Add missing mmio accessors
* ath10k: prevent active scans on potential unusable channels
* MIPS: Fix ISA virt/bus conversion for non-zero PHYS_OFFSET
* ata: libahci: Correct setting of DEVSLP register
* scsi: 3ware: fix return 0 on the error path of probe
* ath10k: disable bundle mgmt tx completion event support
* Bluetooth: hidp: Fix handling of strncpy for hid->name information
* x86/mm: Remove in_nmi() warning from vmalloc_fault()
* gpio: ml-ioh: Fix buffer underwrite on probe error path
* net: mvneta: fix mtu change on port without link
* MIPS: Octeon: add missing of_node_put()
* net: dcb: For wild-card lookups, use priority -1, not 0
* Input: atmel_mxt_ts - only use first T9 instance
* iommu/ipmmu-vmsa: Fix allocation in atomic context
* mfd: ti_am335x_tscadc: Fix struct clk memory leak
* f2fs: fix to do sanity check with {sit,nat}_ver_bitmap_bytesize
* MIPS: WARN_ON invalid DMA cache maintenance, not BUG_ON
* RDMA/cma: Do not ignore net namespace for unbound cm_id
* xhci: Fix use-after-free in xhci_free_virt_device
* vmw_balloon: include asm/io.h
* netfilter: x_tables: avoid stack-out-of-bounds read in
xt_copy_counters_from_user
* drivers: net: cpsw: fix parsing of phy-handle DT property in dual_emac
config
* net: ethernet: ti: cpsw: fix mdio device reference leak
* ethernet: ti: davinci_emac: add missing of_node_put after calling
of_parse_phandle
* crypto: vmx - Fix sleep-in-atomic bugs
