=== What was done engineering wise? ===
We intend to upload the 3.5.0-16.24 Quantal kernel by EOW.  This upload
most notably will contain upstream Haswell audio patches, disablement of
problematic experimental Cirrus QEMU drm and ast drm drivers, an 
upstream efi handover protocol patch, an IRQ stack overflow bug fix for 
AppArmor, and other misc bug fixes.  As usual, we intend to upload this 
kernel 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? ===
