This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 3.4.23 release.

Patche applied cleanly and compiled and booted on the following systems:

HP EliteBook 6930p Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU     T9400  @ 2.53GHz
HP ProBook 6475b AMD A10-4600M APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics

Cross-compile tests
alpha: defconfig passed
arm: defconfig passed
c6x: defconfig passed
mips: defconfig passed
mipsel: defconfig passed
powerpc: wii_defconfig passed
sh: defconfig passed
sparc: defconfig passed
tile: tilegx_defconfig passed

Correction.
tile: tilegx_defconfig failed:

tile tilegx_defconfig

Just a snippet, I can send a full log.

 LD      init/built-in.o
  HOSTCC  usr/gen_init_cpio
  /home/shuah/lkml/linux_stable_testing_3.0.56/scripts/gen_initramfs_list.sh:
Cannot open 'usr/contents.txt'
make[1]: *** [usr/initramfs_data.cpio] Error 1
make: *** [usr] Error 2

Didn't get a chance to investigate.

Sorry tile failure is for 3.0.56

Is that caused by something new in 3.0.56, or has it always been that
way?

Sorry forgot to mention that it is not a regression in 3.0.56. I
compared the patch
and this source file is not patched in 3.0.56-rc1. git log shows that
this file was last
touched back in Jan of 2011 and very likely this error was introduced
in a commit from
Sept 2010.

You can choose to leave this in and I sent a patch which can go
through its normal process
and get pulled in when it gets approved by the powerpc maintainers.
