Trusty Merges

IMO it's a bad idea to not merge at all. Esp. the 4.11 splits were rather quickly wrapped together and are usually done differently in debian.
For the rest it's probably better to check which changes debian has an apply those to our packages where it makes sense instead of doing full merges.

Also note: 4.12 beta1 tagging is November 6th, so we have ~ 5 days to get this done.
