Users of linux-libre@4.1 should take notice:

I've been unable to find backported patches for CVE-2017-1000364 (Stack
Clash mitigation) for linux-4.1.  Also, upstream support for that kernel
version will reach end-of-life in about a month, so you should plan to
migrate to another kernel version soon.
