Hi,

This is the v2.4.26 release candidate.

It contains a few important fixes, one fixing a memory leak in the fork()
path and another fixing a exploitable ISO9660 symlink buffer overflow.

For those who use mainline kernels, upgrade is recommended.

v2.4.26 will be released shortly as -rc4.


Summary of changes from v2.4.26-rc3 to v2.4.26-rc4
============================================

<john.l.byrne:hp.com>:
o do_fork() error path memory leak

Ernie Petrides:
o fix potential iso9660 symlink overflow

Marcelo Tosatti:
o Nathan Scott: Export the PPC vmalloc_start and ioremap_bot symbols for modules using VMALLOC_START and VMALLOC_END (XFS uses these, for example)
o Changed EXTRAVERSION to -rc4
