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: upstream stable patchset 2022-04-13 Ported from the following upstream stable releases: v4.14.269, v4.19.232 v4.14.270, v4.19.233 v4.14.271, v4.19.234 from git://git.kernel.org/ cgroup/cpuset: Fix a race between cpuset_attach() and cpu hotplug vhost/vsock: don't check owner in vhost_vsock_stop() while releasing parisc/unaligned: Fix fldd and fstd unaligned handlers on 32-bit kernel parisc/unaligned: Fix ldw() and stw() unalignment handlers sr9700: sanity check for packet length USB: zaurus: support another broken Zaurus ping: remove pr_err from ping_lookup net: __pskb_pull_tail() & pskb_carve_frag_list() drop_monitor friends gso: do not skip outer ip header in case of ipip and net_failover openvswitch: Fix setting ipv6 fields causing hw csum failure drm/edid: Always set RGB444 net/mlx5e: Fix wrong return value on ioctl EEPROM query failure configfs: fix a race in configfs_{,un}register_subsystem() RDMA/ib_srp: Fix a deadlock iio: adc: men_z188_adc: Fix a resource leak in an error handling path ata: pata_hpt37x: disable primary channel on HPT371 Revert "USB: serial: ch341: add new Product ID for CH341A" usb: gadget: rndis: add spinlock for rndis response list tracefs: Set the group ownership in apply_options() not parse_options() USB: serial: option: add support for DW5829e USB: serial: option: add Telit LE910R1 compositions usb: dwc3: gadget: Let the interrupt handler disable bottom halves. xhci: re-initialize the HC during resume if HCE was set xhci: Prevent futile URB re-submissions due to incorrect return value. tty: n_gsm: fix encoding of control signal octet bit DV tty: n_gsm: fix proper link termination after failed open Revert "drm/nouveau/pmu/gm200-: avoid touching PMU outside of DEVINIT/PREOS/ACR" memblock: use kfree() to release kmalloced memblock regions fget: clarify and improve __fget_files() implementation gpio: tegra186: Fix chip_data type confusion tracing: Have traceon and traceoff trigger honor the instance UBUNTU: upstream stable to v4.14.269, v4.19.232 mac80211_hwsim: report NOACK frames in tx_status mac80211_hwsim: initialize ieee80211_tx_info at hw_scan_work i2c: bcm2835: Avoid clock stretching timeouts Input: clear BTN_RIGHT/MIDDLE on buttonpads cifs: fix double free race when mount fails in cifs_get_root() dmaengine: shdma: Fix runtime PM imbalance on error i2c: cadence: allow COMPILE_TEST i2c: qup: allow COMPILE_TEST net: usb: cdc_mbim: avoid altsetting toggling for Telit FN990 usb: gadget: don't release an existing dev->buf usb: gadget: clear related members when goto fail ata: pata_hpt37x: fix PCI clock detection ALSA: intel_hdmi: Fix reference to PCM buffer address ASoC: ops: Shift tested values in snd_soc_put_volsw() by +min xfrm: fix MTU regression netfilter: fix use-after-free in __nf_register_net_hook() xfrm: enforce validity of offload input flags netfilter: nf_queue: don't assume sk is full socket netfilter: nf_queue: fix possible use-after-free batman-adv: Request iflink once in batadv-on-batadv check batman-adv: Request iflink once in batadv_get_real_netdevice batman-adv: Don't expect inter-netns unique iflink indices net: dcb: flush lingering app table entries for unregistered devices net/smc: fix unexpected SMC_CLC_DECL_ERR_REGRMB error generated by client net/smc: fix unexpected SMC_CLC_DECL_ERR_REGRMB error cause by server mac80211: fix forwarded mesh frames AC & queue selection net: stmmac: fix return value of __setup handler net: sxgbe: fix return value of __setup handler net: arcnet: com20020: Fix null-ptr-deref in com20020pci_probe() efivars: Respect "block" flag in efivar_entry_set_safe() can: gs_usb: change active_channels's type from atomic_t to u8 ARM: 9182/1: mmu: fix returns from early_param() and __setup() functions soc: fsl: qe: Check of ioremap return value net: chelsio: cxgb3: check the return value of pci_find_capability() nl80211: Handle nla_memdup failures in handle_nan_filter Input: elan_i2c -
