=== What was done engineering wise? ===
We uploaded the 3.5.0-15.[20-22] Quantal kernels.  These uploads contained
an update to the v3.5.4 upstream stable kernel, eCryptfs bug fixes, Haswell
graphics support patches, an updated and re-enabled aufs, i915 backlight
control fixes, and Cypress PS/2 trackpad tap-to-click fixes.  As usual, we
uploaded these kernels to the ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/q-lts-backport PPA to
facilitate testing of the 12.10 kernel in 12.04.  Please test and let us
know your results.

=== What's about to land that might impact the other teams and release as a whole? ===
