This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 2.6.13.4
release. There are 7 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 us know. If anyone is a maintainer of the proper
subsystem, and wants to add a signed-off-by: line to the patch, please
respond with it.

These patches are sent out with a number of different people on the Cc:
line. If you wish to be a reviewer, please email sta...@kernel.org to
add your name to the list. If you want to be off the reviewer list,
also email us.

Responses should be made by Sunday, October 9, 24:00:00 UTC. Anything
received after that time, might be too late.

thanks,

the -stable release team (i.e. the ones wearing the joker hat in the corner...)

before adding it to the queue.
