Lots of stable kernel updates

[Posted December 1, 2019 by corbet]

The 5.4.1, 5.3.14, 4.19.87, 4.14.157, 4.9.204, and 4.4.204 stable kernels have all been released; they contain a relatively large set of important fixes and updates. For good measure, 4.9.205 and 4.4.205 followed a full 30 seconds later with one problematic patch reverted.

Is 5.4 confirmed as an LTS kernel yet? I presume it is going to be, as is traditional for the final release of the year.
