Showed up in 4.4.5.
How old is the ubuntu base kernel right now? Have they been keeping it up to date?
Yes, I checked again manually, and of course, these seem present! Sorry about the noise.
I used "git cherry -v" to get the list of patches in ubuntu and not-in linux-4.4.y, and these patches showed up as 'not in 4.4.y'. Perhaps I have to use more git-foo. Will try to get it correct.
A simple search of 'git log' will show you that those commits are in the tree, not much 'git-foo' needed here. I've never used 'git cherry', so perhaps it is not catching something, or due to the changelog text changing when I commit the patch to the stable tree (I add the original commit id to the changelog.)
thanks,
