Security fixes

+nvidia_6111-6629_compat.diff
A more comprehensive set of compatibility changes to allow the nvidia 6111 and 6629 driver versions to work

+fix-ll-resume.diff
Fixes the problem of acpi resuming by removing a small change from the low latency patches

+cfq-ts-050104.patch *
The latest version of the timeslice cfq I/O scheduler with i/o priority support

+isobatch_ionice.diff
Add discrete support for i/o priorities being linked with SCHED_BATCH and SCHED_ISO classes in the staircase cpu scheduler

+s9.2_s9.3.diff
A small change to the staircase scheduler. This backs out special quirk treatment of interactive tasks (so every task is now treated the same) and is a fix for some fluctuating interactivity issues people would have seen. It is a win in most settings but some people will notice bad behaviour with wine based games and audio while others will notice better behaviour with these games (go figure). A workaround is to run your games nice +19.
