Title:
  Precise update to v3.8.13.23 stable release

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux source package in Precise:
  New

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 v3.8.13.23 upstream stable
         patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
         kernel as well.

         git://git.kernel.org/

      TEST CASE: TBD

         The following patches are in the v3.8.13.23 stable release:
  Linux 3.8.13.23
  floppy: don't write kernel-only members to FDRAWCMD ioctl output
  floppy: ignore kernel-only members in FDRAWCMD ioctl input
  n_tty: Fix n_tty_write crash when echoing in raw mode
