Bug description:
  SRU Justification

  Impact:

  The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar in scope
  to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to demonstrably fix a
  bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream by originating either
  directly from Linus' tree or in a minimally backported form of that
  patch. The 2.6.32.25 upstream stable patch set is now available. It
  should be included in the Ubuntu kernel as well.

    http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.32.25
    http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/patch-2.6.32.25.bz2

  Test Case: TBD

  The following 3 patches in the 2.6.32.25 stable update were already
  release in a security update.  Therefore, we will omit these 3 patches
  from the 2.6.32.25 stable update:

   * ALSA: prevent heap corruption in snd_ctl_new
   * ocfs2: Don't walk off the end of fast symlinks.
   * rose: Fix signedness issues wrt. digi count.

  Additionally, 2 patches which were applied as "pre-stable" have landed
  in this 2.6.32.25 update.  Therefore, we will drop the pre-stable
  patches in favor of the official patches from the 2.6.32.25 patch set:

   * ACPI: enable repeated PCIEXP wakeup by clearing PCIEXP_WAKE_STS on resume
   * mm: (pre-stable) Move vma_stack_continue into mm.h

  I'd also note that it appears somewhere along the way that
  updateconfigs and updateportsconfigs needed but be run but never was.
  Thus, I've also included 2 additional patches which update the configs
  and portsconfigs.

  The following is the complete list of patches in the 2.6.32.25 stable
  release:

   * x86, cpu: After uncapping CPUID, re-run CPU feature detection
