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 v4.9.2 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 v4.9.2 stable release shall be applied: ssb: Fix error routine when fallback SPROM fails ath10k: fix soft lockup during firmware crash/hw-restart rtlwifi: Fix enter/exit power_save perf/x86: Fix exclusion of BTS and LBR for Goldmont perf annotate: Don't throw error for zero
