Title:
  Xenial update to 4.4.129 stable release

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  New

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 4.4.129 upstream
     stable stable patch set is now available. It should be included
     in the Ubuntu kernel as well.

     git://git.kernel.org/
