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 v4.9.7 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 v4.9.7 stable release shall be applied: fbdev: color map copying bounds checking tile/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write drm: Schedule the output_poll_work with 1s delay if we have delayed event drm: Fix broken VT switch with video=1366x768 option drm/i915: Ignore bogus plane coordinates on SKL when the plane is not visible drm/vc4: Fix memory leak of the CRTC state. drm/vc4: Fix an integer overflow in temporary allocation layout. drm/vc4: Return -EINVAL on the overflow checks failing. drm/vc4: fix a bounds check Revert "drm/radeon: always apply pci shutdown callbacks" drm/atomic: clear out fence when duplicating state mm/huge_memory.c: respect FOLL_FORCE/FOLL_COW for thp mm/mempolicy.c: do not put mempolicy before using its nodemask mm, page_alloc: fix check for NULL preferred_zone mm, page_alloc: fix fast-path race with cpuset update or removal mm, page_alloc: move cpuset seqcount checking to slowpath mm, page_alloc: fix premature OOM when racing with cpuset mems update vring: Force use of DMA API for ARM-based systems with legacy devices userns: Make ucounts lock irq-safe sysctl: fix proc_doulongvec_ms_jiffies_minmax() xfs: prevent quotacheck from overloading inode lru ISDN: eicon: silence misleading array-bounds warning Btrfs: remove old tree_root case in btrfs_read_locked_inode() Btrfs: disable xattr operations on subvolume directories Btrfs: remove ->{get, set}_acl() from btrfs_dir_ro_inode_operations RDMA/cma: Fix unknown symbol when CONFIG_IPV6 is not enabled s390/mm: Fix cmma unused transfer from pgste into pte s390/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write IB/cxgb3: fix misspelling in header guard IB/iser: Fix sg_tablesize calculation IB/srp: fix mr allocation when the device supports sg gaps IB/srp: fix invalid indirect_sg_entries parameter value can: c_can_pci: fix null-pointer-deref in c_can_start() - set device pointer can: ti_hecc: add missing prepare and unprepare of the clock ARC: udelay: fix inline assembler by adding LP_COUNT to clobber list ARC: [arcompact] handle unaligned access delay slot corner case parisc: Don't use BITS_PER_LONG in userspace-exported swab.h header nfs: Don't increment lock sequence ID after NFS4ERR_MOVED NFSv4.1: Fix a deadlock in layoutget NFSv4.0: always send mode in SETATTR after EXCLUSIVE4 SUNRPC: cleanup ida information when removing sunrpc module iw_cxgb4: free EQ queue memory on last deref pctv452e: move buffer to heap, no mutex v4l: tvp5150: Reset device at probe time, not in get/set format handlers v4l: tvp5150: Fix comment regarding output pin muxing v4l: tvp5150: Don't override output pinmuxing at stream on/off time drm/i915: Clear ret before unbinding in i915_gem_evict_something() drm/i915: prevent crash with .disable_display parameter drm/i915: Don't leak edid in intel_crt_detect_ddc() drm/i915: Don't init hpd polling for vlv and chv from runtime_suspend() drm/i915: Fix calculation of rotated x and y offsets for planar formats drm/i915: Check for NULL atomic state in intel_crtc_disable_noatomic() IB/umem: Release pid in error and ODP flow IB/rxe: Fix rxe dev insertion to rxe_dev_list IB/rxe: Prevent from completer to operate on non valid QP s5k4ecgx: select CRC32 helper pinctrl: broxton: Use correct PADCFGLOCK offset pinctrl: uniphier: fix Ethernet (RMII) pin-mux setting for LD20 pinctrl: baytrail: Rectify debounce support memory_hotplug: make zone_can_shift() return a boolean value virtio_mmio: Set DMA masks appropriately platform/x86: mlx-platform: free first dev on error platform/x86: intel_mid_powerbtn: Set IRQ_ONESHOT mm, memcg: do not retry precharge charges perf/core: Fix concurrent sys_perf_event_open() vs. 'move_group' race drm/i915: Remove WaDisableLSQCROPERFforOCL KBL workaround.
