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 v4.4.25 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 v4.4.25 stable release shall be applied:

timekeeping: Fix __ktime_get_fast_ns() regression
ALSA: ali5451: Fix out-of-bound position reporting
ALSA: usb-audio: Extend DragonFly dB scale quirk to cover other variants

x86/boot: Fix kdump, cleanup aborted E820_PRAM max_pfn manipulation
x86/irq: Prevent force migration of irqs which are not in the vector domain
x86/dumpstack: Fix x86_32 kernel_stack_pointer() previous stack access
