Kernel crash in memcg_inc_ws_activate().
It was discovered that a race could happen between removal of memcg and workingset_refault() running in parallel. This could result in a kernel crash in memcg_inc_ws_activate().

kvm: inefficient memory shrinking for VMs.
It was discovered that a node with dozens of CPU cores, lots of RAM and many VMs running could get into a situation when almost all CPU cores were busy in mmu_shrink_scan(). This could happen because memory shrinking was done under kvm_lock spinlock and only for one VM at a time. All CPU cores but one just waited for kvm_lock in such cases, while the last one was busy with the actual memory shrinking for a VM.

fuse_kio_pcs: latency was calculated incorrectly.
It was found that the in-kernel implementation of Virtuozzo Storage client stored latency values in milliseconds rather than in microseconds, resulting in bogus statistics data.

OOM killer would kill tasks from cgroups without memory guarantees first.
If the amount of free memory is low, OOM killer would kill the tasks from cgroups without memory guarantees first. However, it seems more reasonable to kill the tasks from cgroups exceeding their guarantees the most.

ext4: inode tables created during online resize were not zeroed.
It was discovered that inode tables created during online resize of an ext4 filesystem were not zeroed after that. This could potentially result in lower performance of the filesystem.

Windows Server 2016 Essentials failed to install into a QEMU VM with disabled PMU.
It was found that if no PMU counters were exposed to guest, KVM skipped the whole remaining PMU-related initialization, including filling of LBR-related data. As it turned out, Windows Server 2016 Essentials tried to access these data during the installation and failed to install as a result.

Memory leak in the implementation of IPv4 routing.
It was discovered that a certain sequence of operations related to IPv4 routing could trigger a kernel memory leak. An attacker could potentially exploit that from a container to cause a denial of service.
