Subject: Linux 2.6.24.7

We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.24.7 kernel.

Yeah, I said that there was not going to be anymore unless a security
issue happened, well, that's what happened.

This release fixes a security issue and all users of the 2.6.24 series
are strongly encouraged to upgrade.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.24.6 and 2.6.24.7

The updated 2.6.24.y git tree can be found at:
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.24.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
        http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.24.y.git;a=summary

thanks,

greg k-h
