Beware that "KVM: Fix fs/gs reload oops with invalid ldt" causes a
regression; see <http://bugs.debian.org/604956>.  I don't know whether
that's an issue for Ubuntu.  The fix-up is not directly applicable to
2.6.32 but I will attempt to backport it for Debian if the KVM
maintainers don't get to it first.
