The HWE a563fd9c62f0 UBUNTU: Ubuntu-hwe-4.18.0-17.18~18.04.1 appears to
have all patches.

Disco appears to be missing only this patch:
92edf8df0ff2ae86cc632eeca0e651fd8431d40d powerpc/security: Fix spectre_v2 
reporting

Cosmic (which is supported until July) is missing a number of patches:

barrier from the command line

406d2b6ae3420f5bb2b3db6986dc6f0b6dbb637b powerpc/64: Make meltdown reporting

mitigations reporting
92edf8df0ff2ae86cc632eeca0e651fd8431d40d powerpc/security: Fix spectre_v2 
reporting
This appears to already be in -next.

For the bionic 18.04.1 (4.15) kernel only this patch is already part of 
master-next:
a6b3964ad71a61bb7c61d80a60bea7d42187b2eb powerpc/64s: Add barrier_nospec

The others are ported, there were only 3 that were not clean.  Those are:
2eea7f067f495e33b8b116b35b5988ab2b8aec55 powerpc/64s: Add support for ori 
barrier_nospec patching
This failed because commit a048a07d7f4535baa4cbad6bc024f175317ab938 is missing, 
but it does not look like that is required here.

cb3d6759a93c6d0aea1c10deb6d00e111c29c19c powerpc/64s: Enable barrier_nospec 
based on firmware settings
This failed because debugfs was already included, I can see that previously 
added, I didn't see where it was previously removed.

06d0bbc6d0f56dacac3a79900e9a9a0d5972d818 powerpc/asm: Add a patch_site macro & 
helpers for patching instructions
This failed because 8183d99f4a22c is not included - but doesn't seem necessary.

All other patches applied with, at most, some fuzz.

Has had a little testing - boots, check debugfs, etc.
