Stable kernels with security fixes

[Posted August 8, 2023 by corbet]
The 6.4.9, 6.1.44, 5.15.125, 5.10.189, 5.4.252, 4.19.290, and 4.14.321 stable kernel updates have all been released; they are dominated by fixes for the latest round of speculative-execution vulnerabilities.

Do note the warning attached to each of these releases:

Note, PLEASE TEST this kernel if you are on the 6.4.y tree before using it in a real workload. This was a quick release due to the obvious security fixes in it, and as such, it has not had very much testing "in the wild". Please let us know of any problems seen. Also note that the user/kernel api for the new security mitigations might be changing over time, so do not get used to them being fixed in stone just yet.
