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:

       4.4.161 upstream stable release
       from git://git.kernel.org/

The following patches will be applied:
* mm/vmstat.c: skip NR_TLB_REMOTE_FLUSH* properly
* fbdev/omapfb: fix omapfb_memory_read infoleak
* x86/vdso: Fix asm constraints on vDSO syscall fallbacks
* x86/vdso: Fix vDSO syscall fallback asm constraint regression
* PCI: Reprogram bridge prefetch registers on resume
* mac80211: fix setting IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_RX_MGMT for AP mode keys
* PM / core: Clear the direct_complete flag on errors
* dm cache: fix resize crash if user doesn't reload cache table
* xhci: Add missing CAS workaround for Intel Sunrise Point xHCI
* USB: serial: simple: add Motorola Tetra MTP6550 id
* of: unittest: Disable interrupt node tests for old world MAC systems
* ext4: always verify the magic number in xattr blocks
* cgroup: Fix deadlock in cpu hotplug path
* ath10k: fix use-after-free in ath10k_wmi_cmd_send_nowait
* powerpc/fadump: Return error when fadump registration fails
* ARC: clone syscall to setp r25 as thread pointer
* ucma: fix a use-after-free in ucma_resolve_ip()
* ubifs: Check for name being NULL while mounting
* tcp: increment sk_drops for dropped rx packets
* tcp: use an RB tree for ooo receive queue
* tcp: fix a stale ooo_last_skb after a replace
* tcp: free batches of packets in tcp_prune_ofo_queue()
* tcp: call tcp_drop() from tcp_data_queue_ofo()
* tcp: add tcp_ooo_try_coalesce() helper
* ath10k: fix scan crash due to incorrect length calculation
* ebtables: arpreply: Add the standard target sanity check
* Linux 4.4.161
