Public bug reported:

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 v4.4.14 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 v4.4.14 stable release shall be
applied:

scsi_lib: correctly retry failed zero length REQ_TYPE_FS commands
scsi: Add QEMU CD-ROM to VPD Inquiry Blacklist
netlink: Fix dump skb leak/double free
tipc: fix nametable publication field in nl compat
switchdev: pass pointer to fib_info instead of copy

bpf: Use mount_nodev not mount_ns to mount the bpf filesystem
udp: prevent skbs lingering in tunnel socket queues

team: don't call netdev_change_features under team->lock
vxlan: Accept user specified MTU value when create new vxlan link
tcp: record TLP and ER timer stats in v6 stats
bridge: Don't insert unnecessary local fdb entry on changing mac address
l2tp: fix configuration passed to setup_udp_tunnel_sock()
ipv6: Skip XFRM lookup if dst_entry in socket cache is valid
vxlan: Relax MTU constraints
