As the -stable patch review cycle is now over, I've released the
2.6.11.7 kernel in the normal kernel.org places.  Yes, I'm still using
bk for this release, as we don't have any other system in place just
yet...

The diffstat and short summary of the fixes are below.  

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.11.6 and 2.6.11.7, as it is small enough to do so.

thanks,
