I already love this kernel version.
Not only I don't see any regressions, but it also fixed 2 issues on my system:

1) my wireless now is not turned on (led is off and checkbox in network manager
is disabled) when mechanical switch on my laptop is in "off" position.
(I think it was that way in some pre-.30/.29 verions, but I may be wrong here)

2) alsamixer now allows me to output sound via mic jack
(that's 3 possible outputs together with 2 headphones jacks),
which was the case in pre-.30 kernels as well.

Also it seems that CFS does less CPU-to-CPU usage unballancing.

Again, no problems detected with this kernel version, and dmesg is clean.

Signed off x86_64.
