Linux 2.6.25.3

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.25.3 kernel.

Yes, its a few hours earlier than originally expected, but there are two
security bugs fixed in here that just recently were made public, so we
figured we would err on the safe side. All users of the 2.6.25 series
are strongly encouraged to upgrade, and anyone running 2.6.24 should
also move up to 2.6.25 at this time if possible.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.25.2 and 2.6.25.3

The updated 2.6.25.y git tree can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.25.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.25.y.git;a=summary

thanks,

greg k-h
