== SRU Justification ==
A regression was introduced in all Ubuntu kernels.  The regression was 
introduced in 3.13.0-135 for Trusty.  The 3.13.0-133 kernel did not exhibit the bug.  
It was found that the regression is fixed by mainline commit:
4587eee04e2a ("SMB3: Validate negotiate request must always be signed").

This fix is required in all Ubuntu supported releases.  Commit 4587eee04e2a
landed in mailine as of 4.14-rc7.  It  was also cc'd to upstream stable.  Upstream
3.13 is EOL, which is the reason for thie SRU request.

== Fix ==
commit 4587eee04e2ac7ac3ac9fa2bc164fb6e548f99cd

    SMB3: Validate negotiate request must always be signed

== Regression Potential ==
This patch is to fix a regression.  It was also cc'd to upstream stable, so 
it received addition review upstream.

== Test Case ==
A test kernel was built with this patch and tested by the original bug reporter.
The bug reporter states the test kernel resolved the bug.
