Subject: [ 00/10] 3.2.8-stable review
Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2012 16:05:10 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120224000510.GA1005@kroah.com> (raw)
Note, this is a "special" review cycle, only containing a single, large
bugfix for the reported floating point problem reported by some wireless
users. It would be VERY good if anyone running a x86-32 machine and a
wireless driver test this out to verify that it works properly.
This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 3.2.8 release.
There are 10 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response
to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please
let me know.
Responses should be made by Sun Feb 26 00:00:00 UTC 2012.
Anything received after that time might be too late.
The whole patch series can be found in one patch at:
kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/stable-review/patch-3.2.8-rc1.gz
and the diffstat can be found below.
thanks,
greg k-h
