Maverick update to 2.6.35.5 stable release

[Leann Ogasawara]

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

Hi Leann,

Please be sure to confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu. ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ . If the issue remains, please run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 645522

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

We can omit the following patch from the 2.6.35.5 patch set:

"Add Sony VAIO quirk for ALC269"

This is because we've applied the following to Maverick:

(upstream) ALSA: hda - Apply ALC269 VAIO fix-up to all Sony laptops with ALC269

BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/655386
BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/546769
BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/648871
BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/642892
BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/637291
BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/637291
BugLink: https://launchpad.net/bugs/598938

We've applied a fix-up for ALC269 VAIO only for two models. But all
Sony VAIO models with ALC269 codec seem to require the similar fix.
Let's apply it with vendor-id mask.

Once this lands in Linus' tree it should be sent to upstream stable.

Accepted linux into maverick-proposed, the package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!
