Subject: [RELEASE] LTTng-modules 2.8.5 and 2.9.2 (Linux kernel tracer)

Hi!

These new releases of LTTng-modules (2.8.5 and 2.9.2) mainly adapt
actively maintained stable branches (stable-2.8 and stable-2.9) to
build on 4.10 and 4.11-rc8 Linux kernels.

LTTng-modules 2.9.1 already supported the 4.10 kernel. Therefore,
2.9.2 adds support for 4.11-rc8 kernel to the stable-2.9 branch,
and 2.8.5 adds support for the 4.10 and 4.11-rc8 kernels to the
stable-2.8 branch.

Don't forget to enjoy a delicious zucchini bread today !

Enjoy!

Mathieu
