3.6.1-stable review

Note, I don't normally do stable releases in the middle of the -rc1 merge window, but by doing that, they get really big and delay getting bugfixes to users who want/need them. So I've picked through the patches submitted for the stable releases so far, and taken the "safer" ones (i.e. mostly all small driver fixes). I still have a lot more patches in the queue to be applied after this release, so if you don't see a patch you have submitted in here, please wait for the next stable release before worrying.

------

This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 3.6.1 release. There are 56 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 me know.

Responses should be made by Sat Oct 6 21:11:02 UTC 2012. 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/v3.0/stable-review/patch-3.6.1-rc1.gz

and the diffstat can be found below.

thanks,
