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 4.4.97 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 4.4.97 stable release shall be applied:
* ALSA: timer: Add missing mutex lock for compat ioctls
* ALSA: seq: Fix nested rwsem annotation for lockdep splat
* cifs: check MaxPathNameComp
