When running low on memory with various stress-ng stressors I
kept on tripping a null ptr dereference oops when ssh'd into
the Dragonboard via a ASIX Electronics Corp. AX88772 USB
ethernet dongle. The following patch fixes this issue for me.
This fix is in 4.4 so not applicable for the Xenial 4.4 based
kernels.
