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 4.4.32 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 4.4.32 stable release shall be
applied:

tcp: fix overflow in __tcp_retransmit_skb()
net: avoid sk_forward_alloc overflows
tcp: fix wrong checksum calculation on MTU probing
tcp: fix a compile error in DBGUNDO()
ip6_gre: fix flowi6_proto value in ip6gre_xmit_other()
ipmr, ip6mr: fix scheduling while atomic and a deadlock with ipmr_get_route
tg3: Avoid NULL pointer dereference in tg3_io_error_detected()
net: fec: set mac address unconditionally
net: pktgen: fix pkt_size
net/sched: act_vlan: Push skb->data to mac_header prior calling skb_vlan_*() 
functions
net: Add netdev all_adj_list refcnt propagation to fix panic
packet: call fanout_release, while UNREGISTERING a netdev
netlink: do not enter direct reclaim from netlink_dump()
ipv6: tcp: restore IP6CB for pktoptions skbs
ip6_tunnel: fix ip6_tnl_lookup
ipv6: correctly add local routes when lo goes up
net: pktgen: remove rcu locking in pktgen_change_name()
bridge: multicast: restore perm router ports on multicast enable
rtnetlink: Add rtnexthop offload flag to compare mask
net: add recursion limit to GRO
ipv4: disable BH in set_ping_group_range()
ipv4: use the right lock for ping_group_range
net: sctp, forbid negative length
udp: fix IP_CHECKSUM handling
net sched filters: fix notification of filter delete with proper handle
sctp: validate chunk len before actually using it
packet: on direct_xmit, limit tso and csum to supported devices
of: silence warnings due to max() usage
Revert KVM: MIPS: Drop other CPU ASIDs on guest MMU changes
KVM: MIPS: Drop other CPU ASIDs on guest MMU changes
drm/amdgpu/dp: add back special handling for NUTMEG
drm/amdgpu: fix DP mode validation
drm/radeon/dp: add back special handling for NUTMEG

scsi: megaraid_sas: fix macro MEGASAS_IS_LOGICAL to avoid regression
