linux (2.6.27-5.8) intrepid; urgency=low

  [ Amit Kucheria ]

  * Update AUFS-related Kconfig
    - LP: #264048

  [ Michael Haas ]

  * add proper aufs source tree from 20080922
  * Fix AUFS compilation in vfsub.c
  * Add splice-2.6.23.patch from AUFS to export a symbol needed by AUFS
  * Add put_filp.patch from AUFS to export a symbol needed by AUFS
  * apply (modified) lhash.patch from AUFS to export __lookup_hash()
  * Add deny_write_access.patch from AUFS - export deny_write_access
  * Add sec_perm-2.6.24.patch from AUFS - export security_inode_permission
  * make sure TMPFS_MAGIC is defined in AUFS Makefile

  [ Tim Gardner ]

  * Enabled CONFIG_IPWIRELESS
    - LP: #274748
  * Enabled CONFIG_E1000E, disabled CONFIG_E1000E_NEW
    This takes advantage of the upstream NVM protection fix in
    commit 4a7703582836f55a1cbad0e2c1c6ebbee3f9b3a7.
