Peter Korsgaard 2015d83dd5 xserver_xorg-server: add upstream security fixes for CVE-2017-10971 / 10972
Add upstream patches fixing the following security issues:

CVE-2017-10971:
	The endianess handling for X Events assumed a fixed size of X Event structures and
	had a specific 32 byte stack buffer for that.

	However "GenericEvents" can have any size, so if the events were sent in the wrong
	endianess, this stack buffer could be overflowed easily.

	So authenticated X users could overflow the stack in the X Server and with the X
	server usually running as root gaining root prileveges.

CVE-2017-10972:
	An information leak out of the X server due to an uninitialized stack area when swapping
	event endianess.

For more details, see the advisory:

Subject: [PATCH] Xi: Verify all events in ProcXSendExtensionEvent.
The requirement is that events have type in range
EXTENSION_EVENT_BASE..lastEvent, but it was tested
only for first event of all.
