CVE-2011-1479
	DoS (crash) due slab corruption in inotify_init1 (incomplete fix
	for CVE-2010-4250)

This only affects v2.6.37 and later, fixes for this have hit oneiric and
natty via mainline and stable.  Following this email is a patch for
maverick (master only).  This is a simple cherry-pick from mainline.

Proposing for maverick.
