linux-fsl-imx51: 2.6.31-609.26 -proposed tracker

Bug Description

This bug is for tracking the 2.6.31-609.26 upload package. This bug will contain status and testing results releated to that upload.

For an explanation of the tasks and the associated workflow see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/kernel-sru-workflow

Passed verification.

The commits for CVE-2010-4076 and CVE-2010-4077 seems a bit confused. This version seems to have half of them, so I'm ignoring those CVEs in the changelog for the future publication. The rest looks fine.

This bug was fixed in the package linux-fsl-imx51 - 2.6.31-609.26
