Linux 3.4.53

I'm announcing the release of the 3.4.53 kernel.

All users of the 3.4 kernel series must upgrade.

The updated 3.4.y git tree can be found at:
	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-3.4.y
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
	http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-st...

thanks,

greg k-h
