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 following upstream
       stable patches should be included in the Ubuntu kernel:

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

            
Linux 4.4.176
KVM: VMX: Fix x2apic check in vmx_msr_bitmap_mode()
ax25: fix possible use-after-free
mISDN: fix a race in dev_expire_timer()
net/x25: do not hold the cpu too long in x25_new_lci()
mfd: as3722: Mark PM functions as __maybe_unused
mfd: as3722: Handle interrupts on suspend
kvm: fix kvm_ioctl_create_device() reference counting (CVE-2019-6974)
x86: livepatch: Treat R_X86_64_PLT32 as R_X86_64_PC32
net: ipv4: use a dedicated counter for icmp_v4 redirect packets
net: stmmac: Fix a race in EEE enable callback
vxlan: test dev->flags & IFF_UP before calling netif_rx()
tcp: clear icsk_backoff in tcp_write_queue_purge()
net: Do not allocate page fragments that are not skb aligned
tcp: tcp_v4_err() should be more careful
net: Add header for usage of fls64()
sky2: Increase D3 delay again
net: Fix for_each_netdev_feature on Big endian
hwmon: (lm80) Fix missing unlock on error in set_fan_div()
vsock: cope with memory allocation failure at socket creation time
net: fix IPv6 prefix route residue
