CVE-2018-5750:
Wang Qize discovered that an information disclosure vulnerability
existed in the SMBus driver for ACPI Embedded Controllers in the
Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive
information (kernel pointer addresses).
Cherrypicked this simple fix back to artful and trusty. Other series
have this via stable and upstream.
Proposing for SRU to trusty and artful.
