CVE-2011-2491: 
	A flaw in the Linux kernel's client-side NFS Lock Manager (NLM) implementation
	could allow a local, unprivileged user to cause a denial of service.

Following are 3 patches: one for hardy, another one for lucid/[master|imx51] and
a clean cherry pick for the rest (maverick/[master|omap4] and 
natty/[master/omap4]).

Trond Myklebust (1):
  NLM: Don't hang forever on NLM unlock requests - CVE-2011-2491
