I've backported a number of fixes for security issues affecting 4.14- stable. All of these are already fixed in 4.19-stable.

Most of the issues involve filesystem validation, and I tested with the reproducers where available.

For the BPF fix, I verified that the self-tests didn't regress and temporarily added logging to check that the mitigation is applied when needed.

Queued for 4.14, thank you.
