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 4.4.11 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 4.4.11 stable release shall be
applied:

decnet: Do not build routes to devices without decnet private data.
route: do not cache fib route info on local routes with oif
packet: fix heap info leak in PACKET_DIAG_MCLIST sock_diag interface
net: sched: do not requeue a NULL skb
bpf/verifier: reject invalid LD_ABS | BPF_DW instruction
cdc_mbim: apply "NDP to end" quirk to all Huawei devices
net: use skb_postpush_rcsum instead of own implementations
vlan: pull on __vlan_insert_tag error path and fix csum correction
