[SRU][Trusty][Bionic][PATCH 0/1] Fix for CVE-2017-13168

[Kleber Sacilotto de Souza]

https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2017/CVE-2017-13168.html

  It was discovered that the generic SCSI driver in the Linux kernel did not
  properly enforce permissions on kernel memory access. A local attacker
  could use this to expose sensitive information or possibly elevate
  privileges.

Clean cherry-pick for Bionic, minor backport needed for Trusty since a
couple of helpers are not present in 3.13. Compile tested.

Already fixed in Xenial as part as one of the upstream stable updates.
