Linux 2.6.22.8

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>]

We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.22.8 kernel.
It contains a single security bugfix for the the sound subsystem.  There
is potential for local privilege escalation, so all users are certainly
encouraged to upgrade.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.22.7 and 2.6.22.8

The updated 2.6.22.y git tree can be found at:
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.22.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
        http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.22.y.git;a=summary

thanks,

greg k-h
