which has fixes that have been accumulating since rc0<signed tag>
Fixes:
 - CVE-2013-0190/XSA-40 (or stack corruption for 32-bit PV kernels)
 - Fix racy vma access spotted by Al Viro
 - Fix mmap batch ioctl potentially resulting in large O(n) page allcations.
 - Fix vcpu online/offline BUG:scheduling while atomic..
 - Fix unbound buffer scanning for more than 32 vCPUs.
 - Fix grant table being incorrectly initialized
 - Fix incorrect check in pciback
 - Allow privcmd in backend domains.
</signed tag>

You will find that I had to pull in my tree 'v3.7' as the original
root of the 'stable/for-linus-3.8' was based on v3.7-rc3, but there are
fixes (the ones from Daniel and Andres) that are dependent on the v3.7-rc6.
To make it easier I merged the v3.7 in the 'stable/for-linus-3.8'.

You are still going to have a merge conflict in the arch/arm/xen  - but
that one is fairly easy to fix (just remove the two functions with XXX and
leave the EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPLs). I did a resolution in #linux-next-resolution
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-next-resolution
in case you want to double-check yourself.

Please pull!
