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 3.2.45 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 3.2.45 stable release: * Linux 3.2.45 * x86/mm: account for PGDIR_SIZE alignment * r8169: fix vlan tag read ordering. * powerpc: fix numa distance for form0 device tree * kernel/audit_tree.c: tree will leak memory when failure occurs in audit_trim_trees() * ixgbe: add missing rtnl_lock in PM resume path * drm/i915: Fix detection of base of stolen memory * r8169: fix 8168evl frame padding. * sparc64: Fix race in TLB batch processing. * net: drop dst before queueing
