Uploading linux (6.12.29-1)



Hi

With the knowledge of beeing now in the hard freeze (i.e this will
later on require as well an unblock request): I would like to upload
the next version of the 6.12.y stable series to unstable, with the aim
that this should migrate to trixie.

Two new stable versions are imported 6.12.28 and 6.12.29.

Notably the 6.12.29 version contains the mitigations for Indirect
Target Selection (ITS) (CVE-2024-28956). Note, Henrique de Moraes
Holschuh has uploaded already the intel-microcode part (which needs as
well then to go to trixie).

With the upstream version, #1104669 is addressed (a warning during
boot at block/blk-mq-cpumap.c) and #1092624 (a regression, where
numerous amdgpu correctable PCIe bus errors are issued).

Two additional packaging changes are included:

   * drivers/char: set VIRTIO_CONSOLE=y (Closes: #989153, #1041891)

fixing a longstanding issue where a Debian VM with console=hvc0 might
not boot, relevant for for instance for clound environments.

And

   * [riscv64] Enable BT_HCIUART (Closes: #1105002)

enabling hardware support on riscv64.

Regards,
Salvatore
