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 v4.9.1 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 v4.9.1 stable release shall be applied: Revert "UBUNTU: SAUCE: (noup) ptrace: being capable wrt a process requires mapped uids/gids" hotplug: Make register and unregister notifier API symmetric btrfs: limit async_work allocation and worker func duration Btrfs: fix BUG_ON in btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty Btrfs: fix deadlock caused by fsync when logging directory entries Btrfs: fix tree search logic when replaying directory entry deletes Btrfs: fix relocation incorrectly dropping data references btrfs: store and load values of stripes_min/stripes_max in balance status item Btrfs: fix emptiness check for dirtied extent buffers at check_leaf() Btrfs: fix qgroup rescan worker initialization USB: serial: option: add support for Telit LE922A PIDs 0x1040, 0x1041 USB: serial: option: add dlink dwm-158 USB: serial: kl5kusb105: fix open error path USB: cdc-acm: add device id for GW Instek AFG-125 usb: dwc3: gadget: set PCM1 field of isochronous-first TRBs usb: hub: Fix auto-remount of safely removed or ejected USB-3 devices usb: core: usbport: Use proper LED API to fix potential crash usb: gadget: f_uac2: fix error handling at afunc_bind usb: gadget: composite: correctly initialize ep->maxpacket USB: UHCI: report non-PME wakeup signalling for Intel hardware usbip: vudc: fix: Clear already_seen flag also for ep0 ALSA: usb-audio: Add QuickCam Communicate Deluxe/S7500 to volume_control_quirks ALSA: hiface: Fix M2Tech hiFace driver sampling rate change ALSA: hda/ca0132 -
