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 2.6.32.59 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 2.6.32.59 stable release:

compat: Re-add missing asm/compat.h include to fix compile breakage on s390
IA64: Remove COMPAT_IA32 support
writeback: fixups for !dirty_writeback_centisecs
KEYS: Enable the compat keyctl wrapper on s390x
cifs: fix dentry refcount leak when opening a FIFO on lookup
net/usbnet: avoid recursive locking in usbnet_stop()
watchdog: hpwdt: clean up set_memory_x call for 32 bit
blkfront: Fix backtrace in del_gendisk
Linux 2.6.32.59
