Certification-testing is not being done on linux-lts-backport-* packages, setting task to invalid.

[Kees Cook (kees)]

Looks good, thanks!

[C de-Avillez (hggdh2)]

No regressions noted. Tagging qa-testing-passed.

[Herton R. Krzesinski (herton)]

Note that this release had one unverified bug and another bug which failed verification in the SRU report page:

bug 805209: it's a revert of upstream commit which brought a regression, and we don't do verification of reverted patches that were identified as regressions. In this specific case though, the reporter also confirmed the -proposed Maverick kernel solved the issue, so we have extra confirmation that it's ok. I propose we always mark these "regression revert" bugs as verification-done-*.

bug 790754: this one failed verification before, thus SRU patch was reverted on this 2.6.35-30.56 release, so everything is ok also. Just the bug is keep listed and marked failed in the SRU report page, as bugs listed there are against previous release in -updates. Tracking the reverts isn't done on SRU report page, so verification failed bugs are kept listed and marked as failed, we will try to see what can be done to enhance this to avoid confusion.

So this linux-lts-backport-maverick release is good to go.
