Title:
  Xenial update to 4.4.67 stable release

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

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 4.4.67 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 4.4.67 stable release shall be applied:
  * timerfd: Protect the might cancel mechanism proper
  * Handle mismatched open calls
  * ASoC: intel: Fix PM and non-atomic crash in bytcr drivers
  * ALSA: ppc/awacs: shut up maybe-uninitialized warning
  * drbd: avoid redefinition of BITS_PER_PAGE
  * mtd: avoid stack overflow in MTD CFI code
  * net: tg3: avoid uninitialized variable warning
  * netlink: Allow direct reclaim for fallback allocation
  * IB/qib: rename BITS_PER_PAGE to RVT_BITS_PER_PAGE
  * IB/ehca: fix maybe-uninitialized warnings
  * ext4: require encryption feature for EXT4_IOC_SET_ENCRYPTION_POLICY
  * ext4 crypto: revalidate dentry after adding or removing the key
  * ext4 crypto: use dget_parent() in ext4_d_revalidate()
  * ext4/fscrypto: avoid RCU lookup in d_revalidate
  * nfsd4: minor NFSv2/v3 write decoding cleanup
  * nfsd: stricter decoding of write-like NFSv2/v3 ops
  * dm ioctl: prevent stack leak in dm ioctl call
  * Linux 4.4.67
