Fixing CVE-2017-12190 in v4.4.y

Hi Greg,

I am looking into fixing CVE-2017-12190 in chromeos-4.4.
The fix requires two patches, 95d78c28b5a85 ("fix unbalanced
page refcounting in bio_map_user_iov") and 2b04e8f6bbb1 ("more
bio_map_user_iov() leak fixes"). I noticed that the second patch
has not been applied to linux-4.4.y. Is that due to the conflict,
or was there a conscious decision not to apply it ?

On a side note, is there a working archive for stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ?
The one listed at vger.kernel.org (gmane) doesn't work.

Thanks,
Guenter
