linux: 2.6.32-34.75 -proposed tracker

All builds are complete, packages in this bug can be copied to -proposed.

Derivative packages from packages here can be worked on, the following tracking bugs were opened for them:
linux-fsl-imx51 - bug 832586
linux-mvl-dove - bug 832587
linux-ec2 - bug 832588

There's been reports that 'tunnels: fix netns vs proto registration ordering' in 2.6.32.44 is causing a regression, see https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/28/18

This only actually affects the lucid master branch as the fixes were in mainline (correctly) by v2.6.34. The lucid/fsl-imx51 branch does not have the stable backport at this time and so is also unaffected.

The bug itself is limited to the ip6_tunnel tunnelling driver. This driver is used for tunnelling non-ipv6 traffix in ipv6 packets; this is not a tunnelling device for carrying ipv6 over ipv4. Given the very low penetration of ipv6 as primary transport I surmise this will give us a very very low exposure in our userbase.

The fix is simple and should be arriving via -stable shortly, however as it is not currently visible on the longterm queue I will push an equivalent patch to the kernel-team@ list shortly for review.

Fix committed doesn't mean anything on a tracking bug. Tracking bugs should not be used to track individual fixes, a new bug must be opened.

Fixes should not be committed against a tracking bug. A new bug must be opened and the bug committed against that bug number. I will open the new bug and fix the changelog.

This bug was fixed in the package linux - 2.6.32-34.77
