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 v4.11.7 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 v4.11.7 stable release shall be applied: fs: pass on flags in compat_writev configfs: Fix race between create_link and configfs_rmdir can: gs_usb: fix memory leak in gs_cmd_reset() ila_xlat: add missing hash secret initialization cpufreq: conservative: Allow down_threshold to take values from 1 to 10 vb2: Fix an off by one error in 'vb2_plane_vaddr' cec: race fix: don't return -ENONET in cec_receive() selinux: fix double free in selinux_parse_opts_str() mac80211: don't look at the PM bit of BAR frames mac80211/wpa: use constant time memory comparison for MACs drm: mxsfb_crtc: Reset the eLCDIF controller drm/amdgpu: Fix overflow of watermark calcs at > 4k resolutions. drm/i915: Fix GVT-g PVINFO version compatibility check drm/i915: Fix scaling check for 90/270 degree plane rotation drm/i915: Do not sync RCU during shrinking mac80211: fix IBSS presp allocation size mac80211: strictly check mesh address extension mode mac80211: fix dropped counter in multiqueue RX mac80211: don't send SMPS action frame in AP mode when not needed drm/mediatek: fix mtk_hdmi_setup_vendor_specific_infoframe mistake drm/vc4: Fix OOPSes from trying to cache a partially constructed BO. serial: efm32: Fix parity management in 'efm32_uart_console_get_options()' serial: 8250_lpss: Unconditionally set PCI master for Quark serial: sh-sci: Fix (AUTO)RTS in sci_init_pins() serial: sh-sci: Fix late enablement of AUTORTS x86/mm/32: Set the '__vmalloc_start_set' flag in initmem_init() mfd: omap-usb-tll: Fix inverted bit use for USB TLL mode mfd: axp20x: Add support for dts property "xpowers,master-mode" dt-bindings: mfd: axp20x: Add "xpowers,master-mode" property for AXP806 PMICs mfd: cpcap: Fix interrupt to use level interrupt mfd: cpcap: Use ack_invert interrupts mfd: cpcap: Fix bad use of IRQ sense register phy: rcar-gen3-usb2: fix implementation for runtime PM mtd: physmap_of: really fix the physmap add-ons powerpc/mm: Add physical address to Linux page table dump staging: rtl8188eu: prevent an underflow in rtw_check_beacon_data() staging: bcm2835-camera: fix error handling in init staging: iio: tsl2x7x_core: Fix standard deviation calculation iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: do not apply ODR configuration in write_raw handler iio: proximity: as3935: recalibrate RCO after resume iio: adc: ti_am335x_adc: allocating too much in probe ALSA: hda: Add Geminilake id to SKL_PLUS ALSA: usb-audio: fix Amanero Combo384 quirk on big-endian hosts usb: gadget: udc: renesas_usb3: fix pm_runtime functions calling usb: gadget: udc: renesas_usb3: fix deadlock by spinlock usb: gadget: udc: renesas_usb3: lock for PN_ registers access USB: hub: fix SS max number of ports usb: core: fix potential memory leak in error path during hcd creation USB: usbip: fix nonconforming hub descriptor usb: dwc3: gadget: Fix ISO transfer performance pvrusb2: reduce stack usage pvr2_eeprom_analyze() USB: gadget: dummy_hcd: fix hub-descriptor removable fields usb: r8a66597-hcd: select a different endpoint on timeout usb: r8a66597-hcd: decrease timeout coda: restore original firmware locations drivers/misc/c2port/c2port-duramar2150.c: checking for NULL instead of IS_ERR() usb: xhci: Fix USB 3.1 supported protocol parsing usb: xhci: ASMedia ASM1042A chipset need shorts TX quirk USB: gadget: fix GPF in gadgetfs USB: gadgetfs, dummy-hcd, net2280: fix locking for callbacks mm/memory-failure.c: use compound_head() flags for huge pages swap: cond_resched in swap_cgroup_prepare() mm: numa: avoid waiting on freed migrated pages userfaultfd: shmem: handle coredumping in handle_userfault() iio: imu: inv_mpu6050: add accel lpf setting for chip >= MPU6500 staging: iio: ad7152: Fix deadlock in ad7152_write_raw_samp_freq() iio: adc: meson-saradc: fix potential crash in meson_sar_adc_clear_fifo sched/core: Idle_task_exit() shouldn't use switch_mm_irqs_off() genirq: Release resources in __setup_irq() error path alarmtimer: Prevent overflow of relative timers alarmtimer: Rate limit periodic intervals virtio_balloon: disable VIOMMU support MIPS: Fix bnezc/jialc return address calculation MIPS: .its targets depend on vmlinux crypto: Work around deallocated stack frame reference gcc bug on sparc.
