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 2.6.38.7 upstream stable
patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
kernel as well.
TEST CASE: TBD
The following patches are _not_ applied from the 2.6.38.7 stable release since they were already in Natty:
thinkpad-acpi: module autoloading for newer Lenovo ThinkPads.
The following patches are in the 2.6.38.7 stable release:
cifs: change bleft in decode_
cifs: check for bytes_remaining going to zero in CIFS_SessSetup
cifs: sanitize length checking in coalesce_t2 (try #3)
