Precise update to 3.2.18 stable release

[Herton R. Krzesinski]

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

       git://git.kernel.org/

    TEST CASE: TBD

Linux 3.2.18

The change "UBUNTU: SAUCE: ite-cir: postpone ISR registration" was reverted in favour of the more complete version of the same fix provided in 3.2.18 ("rc: Postpone ISR registration")

The commit from 3.2.18, "ARM: prevent VM_GROWSDOWN mmaps extending below FIRST_USER_ADDRESS", needed changes to be applied succesfuly because of the commit 6a7a8a66 "ARM: 7178/1: fault.c: Port OOM changes into do_page_fault" we carry in precise.

These patches from 3.2.18 were dropped since we already carry similar build fixes in precise since 3.2.0-1.1:
* mtd: map.h: fix arm cross-build failure (corresponds to "UBUNTU: SAUCE: include <linux/kernel.h> for linux/mtd/map.h arm build" in Precise)
* stmmac: Fix compilation error in mmc_core.c (corresponds to "UBUNTU: SAUCE: include <linux/printk.h> and <stdarg.h> for mmc_core arm build" in Precise)
