Linux 3.15.9

[Greg KH]

I'm announcing the release of the 3.15.9 kernel.

All users of the 3.15 kernel series must upgrade.

NOTE, there will only be 1 more 3.15.y kernel release after this one,
please move to 3.16.y now, you have been warned.

The updated 3.15.y git tree can be found at:
	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-3.15.y
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
	http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=summary

thanks,

greg k-h
