mm-fix-fault-vs-invalidate-race-for-linear-mappings-fix-2.patch
mm-fix-fault-vs-invalidate-race-for-linear-mappings-fix.patch
revert-driver-core-handles-kobject_uevent-failure-while-device_add.patch
tty-in-tiocsctty-when-we-steal-a-tty-hang-it-up-fix.patch

...I just had a boot where firmware loading failed again. rmmod+insmod
fixed it.
