Another upstream release, please sign off.

This also "fixes" the recent local root exploit, although (I like to repeat that), it was NOT exploitable on our 2.6.30.4 kernel unless you explicitly ran "echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr". However, the .30.5 kernel is safe from this exploit even if you run that command.

I only built x86_64 so far, will do i686 in a minute (takes forever to build though). And - with our recent mirror trouble - it might take a while to propagate through the tubes.

still alive with clean dmesg. signoff x86_64. -Andy

i686 is up, but untested, I have no machine that runs a native i686 system.
