Linux 2.4.34.5

Linux 2.4.34.5

[Willy Tarreau]

Hi all,

I've just released Linux 2.4.34.5, with extracts from 2.4.35-pre5.
The most important one is the fix for the regression I introduced
while fixing CVE-2007-1353 (bluetooth). Basically, I turned a memory
leak bug into a memory corruption bug. Two minor bluetooth fixes have
all been backported from 2.6 too.

The other (less) important fix solves the problem of ide-disk.o causing
oopses after insmod, it was caused by init_idle() being erroneously
marked __init.

Last, a minor LVM fix from the RHEL3 kernel to correctly count extents
in case of errors during snapshot allocation.

Regards,
Willy
