------------------------------------ NOTE: This is the LAST 4.8-stable kernel to be released. After this, it should be end-of-life. Please move to the 4.9-stable tree at this point in time. ------------------------------------ This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 4.8.17 release. There are 96 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please let me know. Responses should be made by Sun Jan 8 21:42:10 UTC 2017. Anything received after that time might be too late. The whole patch series can be found in one patch at: kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/stable-review/patch-4.8.17-rc1.gz or in the git tree and branch at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable-rc.git linux-4.8.y and the diffstat can be found below. thanks, greg k-h ------------- Pseudo-Shortlog of commits: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Linux 4.8.17-rc1 Paulo Zanoni <paulo.r.zanoni@xxxxxxxxx> drm/i915: skip the first 4k of stolen memory on everything >= gen8 Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> drm/i915: Initialize dev_priv->atomic_cdclk_freq at init time Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> drm/i915: Fix cdclk vs. dev_cdclk mess when not recomputing things Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> drm/i915/dsi: Do not clear DPOUNIT_CLOCK_GATE_DISABLE from vlv_init_display_clock_gating Hans de Goede <hdegoede@xxxxxxxxxx> drm/i915/dsi: Fix chv_exec_gpio disabling the GPIOs it is setting Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> net: mvpp2: fix dma unmapping of TX buffers for fragments Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> sg_write()/bsg_write() is not fit to be called under KERNEL_DS Ben Hutchings <ben.hutchings@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> kconfig/nconf: Fix hang when editing symbol with a long prompt Andy Grover <agrover@xxxxxxxxxx> target/user: Fix use-after-free of tcmu_cmds if they are expired Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@xxxxxxxxx> libnvdimm, pfn: fix align attribute Geoff Levand <geoff@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> powerpc/ps3: Fix system hang with GCC 5 builds Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx> powerpc/64e: Convert cmpi to cmpwi in head_64.S NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxxx> SUNRPC: fix refcounting problems with auth_gss messages.
