** Description changed:

+ SRU Justification
+ 
+ Impact:
+ The following patches are heading to the stable maintainers tree and will eventually get pulled into the
+ Lucid tree. The earlier we can get these in the fewer issues our users will encounter. We will be getting
+ these through stable-tree updates, we would just be pulling them in a little earlier.
+ 
  The following patches should really be applied to the Lucid 2.6.32-22.33
  kernel:
  
  ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tytso/ext4-patches/ext4
  -patches-for-2.6.32.11--14.tar.gz
  
  There is a git tree you may find useful here:
  
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git
  lucid-2.6.32-ext4
  
  It fixes a very large number of ext4 bugs, including (but not limited
  to):
  
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14286
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14936
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15420
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15579
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13549
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15742
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15768
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15792
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15827
  
  This patch has been submitted upstream, but I'm not sure if Greg K-H
  will be doing another 2.6.32.y kernel release.
+ 
+ Testing:
+    TBD
