New Revision: 22110

Log:
Correct some errors/omissions in the stable change list

We have already applied 'cciss: fix info leak in cciss_ioctl32_passthru()'
(and did so correctly, unlike 2.6.32.y).

'net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic' and
'MIPS: asm: thread_info: Add _TIF_SECCOMP flag' have CVE numbers.

'tg3: Fix deadlock in tg3_change_mtu()' is not applied, as we have
backported a later version of this driver and it is now excluded when
we generate stable update patches.  Anyway, it doesn't appear to be
needed in 2.6.32.

We already applied a smaller version of 'Fix a few incorrectly checked
[io_]remap_pfn_range() calls' that fixed the known security issue in
uio, but the version in 2.6.32.y also patches two other drivers, so
restore it to the change list.
