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 v4.12.2 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 v4.12.2 stable release shall be
applied:
mqueue: fix a use-after-free in sys_mq_notify()
imx-serial: RX DMA startup latency
proc: Fix proc_sys_prune_dcache to hold a sb reference
locking/rwsem-spinlock: Fix EINTR branch in __down_write_common()
staging: vt6556: vnt_start Fix missing call to vnt_key_init_table.
staging: comedi: fix clean-up of comedi_class in comedi_init()
crypto: caam - fix gfp allocation flags (part I)
crypto: rsa-pkcs1pad - use constant time memory comparison for MACs
ext4: check return value of kstrtoull correctly in reserved_clusters_store
x86/mm/pat: Don't report PAT on CPUs that don't support it
