Bug#779945: unblock: linux/3.16.7-ckt7-1



Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock

Please unblock package linux

- Stable updates 3.16.7-ckt{5,6,7} with many important fixes, including
  fix for CVE-2015-1465
- Additional security fixes: CVE-2015-1420, CVE-2015-1593
- Hardware enablement
  - Olimex A20 OLinuXino LIME2 system
  - GPIO-controlled backlights
  - Dumb framebuffer on Allwinner SoCs
  - Clock fix for Atom E6xx systems
  - Sound on some Haswell and Bay Trail based systems
  - Areca Raid ARC12x4 SCSI adapter
  - Bochs and QXL paravirtual framebuffers
  - BananaPro board
- Fix regression in i915 driver in 3.16.y making some systems unbootable
- Fix regression in nfsv4 uid/gid translation cache in 3.13
- Fix regressions in backlight control on some x86 systems in 3.16

The attached debdiff excludes the generated files under debian/abi/,
debian/config.defines.dump, debian/control, debian/control.md5sum,
debian/rules.gen and under debian/po/.

This will also require an unblock-udeb.

Ben.
