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 4.4.89 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 4.4.89 stable release shall be applied:
* ipv6: accept 64k - 1 packet length in ip6_find_1stfragopt()
* ipv6: add rcu grace period before freeing fib6_node
* ipv6: fix sparse warning on rt6i_node
* qlge: avoid memcpy buffer overflow
* Revert "net: phy: Correctly process PHY_HALTED in phy_stop_machine()"
* Revert "net: use lib/percpu_counter API for fragmentation mem accounting"
* Revert "net: fix percpu memory leaks"
