** Description changed:

- SRU request, Xenial
+ SRU request, Xenial, Artful
  
  [Impact]
  
  lttng dkms modules fail to build against newer HWE kernels because of
  missing 4.14 compat fixes that allow it to build against newer 4.14
  kernels.
  
  [Fix]
  Upstream lttng 4.14 compat fixes.
  
  [Testcase]
  Without the fix, running the kernel team autotest lttng regression test suite 
fails because the module does not build and install.  With the fix the lttng 
smoke tests pass.
  
  To run the test:
  sudo autotest/client/autotest-local 
autotest/client/tests/ubuntu_lttng_smoke_test/control
  
  using git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/autotest and
  git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/autotest-client-tests
  
  [Regression Potential]
  lttng fails to build and work against older kernels. As the new code is 
#if'def'd compat code the 4.14 specific changes are not built into the older 
kernels, so this risk is small.
