Cover letter [000/146] 2.6.38.8 stable review

This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 2.6.38.8 release.

NOTE, this is going to be the LAST .38-stable kernel release. After this release, unless I really messed something up, it will be end-of-life. Please move to the .39 kernel series at this time.

There are 146 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please let us know. If anyone is a maintainer of the proper subsystem, and wants to add a Signed-off-by: line to the patch, please respond with it.

Responses should be made by Friday, June 3, 2011, 15:00:00 UTC. Anything received after that time might be too late.

The whole patch series can be found in one patch at:

	kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/stable-review/patch-2.6.38.8-rc1.gz

and the diffstat can be found below.

thanks,

greg k-h
