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
2.6.32.25 upstream stable patch set is now available. It should be
included in the Ubuntu kernel as well.
The following 3 patches in the 2.6.32.25 stable update were already
applied and released in a Ubuntu security update. Therefore, these 3
patches will be omitted from the 2.6.32.25 stable update:
* ALSA: prevent heap corruption in snd_ctl_new
* ocfs2: Don't walk off the end of fast symlinks.
* rose: Fix signedness issues wrt. digi count.
Additionally, 2 patches which were applied as "pre-stable" have landed
in this 2.6.32.25 update. Therefore, we will drop the pre-stable
patches in favor of the official patches from the 2.6.32.25 patch set:
* ACPI: enable repeated PCIEXP wakeup by clearing PCIEXP_WAKE_STS on resume
* mm: (pre-stable) Move vma_stack_continue into mm.h
I'd also note that it appears somewhere along the way that updateconfigs
and updateportsconfigs needed but be run but never was. Thus, I've also
included 2 additional patches which update the configs and portsconfigs.
I have pushed the entire proposed set of patches to a branch for review:

SRU: Update to 2.6.32.25 stable kernel

"dmaengine: fix interrupt clearing for mv_xor" is of interest for our
RAID5 folks.
A _bunch_ of core networking fixes as well as some network device fixes.
"ACPI: enable repeated PCIEXP wakeup by clearing PCIEXP_WAKE_STS on
resume" from cking
"fix 2.6.32.23 suspend regression caused by commit 6f6198a" seems important.
Looks good overall. There are a few deep core fixes with I/O and DMA,
some MM, and swap fixes. As usual, there are also a bunch of device
driver tweaks and quirks.
