Ok thanks. I will test it on several development machines once it is ready.

OK .. supposedly, this patch fixes the issue:

http://bit.ly/1Sv1Llu

I have made this patch apply to the xen kernel sources:

http://bit.ly/23d5JmD

Let's verify that what I am applying is the only real meat to the first
patch.

I will build and test this locally to verify that we have the issue
before and not after applying that patch.

Then we can test it as a group.

SO .. hold off on testing kernel-3.18.25-17 and I will create a
kernel-3.18.25-18 if this fixes the CVE-2016-0728 issue.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
