Title:
  Xenial update to 4.4.63 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 4.4.63 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 4.4.63 stable release shall be applied:
  * cgroup, kthread: close race window where new kthreads can be migrated to
    non-root cgroups

  * drm/nouveau/mpeg: mthd returns true on success now
  * drm/nouveau/mmu/nv4a: use nv04 mmu rather than the nv44 one
