Bug Description
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 4.4.86 upstream stable
patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
kernel as well.
TEST CASE: TBD
The following patches from the 4.4.86 stable release shall be applied:
* scsi: isci: avoid array subscript warning
* ALSA: au88x0: Fix zero clear of stream->resources
* btrfs: remove duplicate const specifier
* i2c: jz4780: drop superfluous init
* gcov: add support for gcc version >= 6
* gcov: support GCC 7.1
* lightnvm: initialize ppa_addr in dev_to_
* p54: memset(0) whole array
* lpfc: Fix Device discovery failures during switch reboot test.
* arm64: mm: abort uaccess retries upon fatal signal
* x86/io: Add "memory" clobber to insb/insw/
* arm64: fpsimd: Prevent registers leaking across exec
* scsi: sg: protect accesses to 'reserved' page array
* scsi: sg: reset 'res_in_use' after unlinking reserved array
* drm/i915: fix compiler warning in drivers/
* Linux 4.4.86
