Changes
- Major x86_64 security fix (CVE-2007-4573)
- areca and r8169 driver updates
- Rebased to RHEL4-55.0.2.EL
Configs

x86_64: Zero extend all registers after ptrace in 32bit entry path.
Strictly it's only needed for eax. It actually does a little more than strictly needed -- the other registers are already zero extended. Also remove the now unnecessary and non functional compat task check in ptrace. This is CVE-2007-4573 Found by Wojciech Purczynski Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Patch from Vasily (vtaras@):
[PATCH][2.6.9] simfs: add stat64 hookInitial problem: per-user/group disk quota in VE doesn't work, if you use 2.6.9-based kernel. The thing is that during `vzctl start`, vzctl gives the required permission to the appropriate device. If simfs is used, the device should be an anon device. But stat() system call on any simfs inode (this syscall is used by vzctl to obtain major/minor number of device) returns major/minor of _underlying_ device. Consequently vzctl gives the permission to underlying device! Note, it is a potential security hole. The patch adds hook to vfs_getstat64 and creates sim_getstat64: the same approach as in vfs_getstat/sim_getsat.
