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 following upstream
stable patches should be included in the Ubuntu kernel:
4.4.156 upstream stable release
from git://git.
The following patches will be applied:
* staging: android: ion: fix ION_IOC_{MAP,SHARE} use-after-free

* cifs: check if SMB2 PDU size has been padded and suppress the warning
* hfsplus: don't return 0 when fill_super() failed

Skipped "x86/speculatio
Skipped because we already applied it for CVE-2018-6554
* "irda: Fix memory leak caused by repeated binds of irda socket"
Skipped because we already applied it for CVE-2018-6555
* "irda: Only insert new objects into the global database via
setsockopt"
Adjusted context for "ovl: rename is_merge to is_lowest".
Major rewrite of "ovl: override creds with the ones from the superblock mounter" because we did apply in the past "SAUCE: overlayfs: Replace ovl_prepare_creds() with ovl_override_
Skipped "s390/lib: use expoline for all bcr instructions" because we already applied it for CVE-2017-5715.
