linux-yocto: 4.1/4.4 -stable and CVE fixes

Hi all,

While preparing the 4.8.3 update, and looking more at the dirtycow CVE it was worthwhile to also speed up the refresh of 4.4 to pick up the -stable fix for the CVE.

I've also done my own backport of the CVE fix to 4.1 (and will also do an update when a 4.1 -stable picks up the same change).

I've built and booted both 4.1 and 4.4 to make sure everything is sane, and I have more builds running for additional coverage.

I'd consider these two commits as candidates for the 2.2 release if there is another -rc build, they are also safe for backporting to the -stable branches that have the linux-yocto 4.1 and 4.4 kernels, since these are not new features and bug/CVE fixes.

Cheers,

Bruce
