Public bug reported:
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 2.6.35.8 upstream stable patch set is now available. It should be
included in the Ubuntu kernel as well.
