** Summary changed: - Precise update to v3.2.58 stable release + Precise update to v3.2.58 and v3.2.59 stable release
** Description changed: 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 v3.2.58 upstream stable patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu kernel as well. git://git.kernel.org/ TEST CASE: TBD The following patches are in the v3.2.58 stable release: - Linux 3.2.58 - Revert "isci: fix reset timeout handling" -
