Lucid update to 2.6.32.65 stable release

[Luis Henriques]

SRU Justification

    Impact:
       The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar
       in scope to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to
       demonstrably fix a bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream
       by originating either directly from Linus' tree or in a minimally
       backported form of that patch. The 2.6.32.65 upstream stable
       patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
       kernel as well.

       git://git.kernel.org/

    TEST CASE: TBD

       The following patches are in the 2.6.32.65 stable release:

x86, 64-bit: Move K8 B step iret fixup to fault entry asm
x86-64: Adjust frame type at paranoid_exit:
x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels
x86-32, espfix: Remove filter for espfix32 due to race
x86-64, espfix: Don't leak bits 31:16 of %esp returning to 16-bit stack
x86, espfix: Move espfix definitions into a separate header file
x86, espfix: Fix broken header guard
x86, espfix: Make espfix64 a Kconfig option, fix UML
x86, espfix: Make it possible to disable 16-bit support
x86_64/entry/xen: Do not invoke espfix64 on Xen
x86/espfix/xen: Fix allocation of pages for paravirt page tables
x86_64, traps: Stop using IST for #SS
x86_64, traps: Fix the espfix64 #DF fixup and rewrite it in C
x86_64, traps: Rework bad_iret
