Subject: [Announce] 2.6.29-rt2

We are pleased to announce the next update to our new preempt-rt
series.
 
      - fix a fork/exit bug in the signal per task cache (/me puts on
        a huge brown paper bag - Thanks to Phillipe Reynes and Will
        Schmidt for reporting and testing)

      - fix a group scheduling migration accounting bug (decoded with
        and fixed by Peter Zijlstra - reported by Robin Gareus)

      - tlb gather rework by Peter Zijlstra - Thanks Peter !

      - the usual fixlets

The tlb rework might be incomplete on some of the uncountable
incarnations of PowerPC and ARM platforms, so look out for wreckage
and keep the usual tools (fire-extinguishers, brooms, buckets etc.)
handy.
