I'm announcing the release of the 3.12.74 kernel. All users of the 3.12 kernel series must upgrade. Note that this is very likely the last 3.12 stable kernel. Everybody should now really consider jumping to something newer. Besides that, it was nice experience with the 61 releases from .14 to this .74. Thanks go to everybody involved. The updated 3.12.y git tree can be found at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-3.12.y and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=summary ---------------------------------------------------------------- Al Viro (1): p9_client_readdir() fix Andrey Konovalov (3): net/packet: fix overflow in check for priv area size net/packet: fix overflow in check for tp_frame_nr net/packet: fix overflow in check for tp_reserve Arnd Bergmann (5): dvb-usb-v2: avoid use-after-free ACPI / power: Avoid maybe-uninitialized warning tty: nozomi: avoid a harmless gcc warning hostap: avoid uninitialized variable use in hfa384x_get_rid gfs2: avoid uninitialized variable warning Ben Hutchings (4): pegasus: Use heap buffers for all register access rtl8150: Use heap buffers for all register access catc: Combine failure cleanup code in catc_probe() catc: Use heap buffer for memory size test Benjamin Herrenschmidt (1): powerpc: Disable HFSCR[TM] if TM is not supported Cameron Gutman (1): Input: xpad - add support for Razer Wildcat gamepad Chris Salls (1): mm/mempolicy.c: fix error handling in set_mempolicy and mbind.
