Bug Description

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 2.6.32.14 upstream stable patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu kernel as well.

http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/patch-2.6.32.14.bz2

TEST CASE: TBD

Due to the fact that we are carrying the DRM backport from 2.6.33, all patches affecting DRM have been dropped from the 2.6.32.14 port and picked from 2.6.33.5 instead.
