[ANNOUNCE] Kernel v3.1.8-1.1 (cooker only)

Hi,

The regular kernel update based on stable 3.1.8 kernel should be
available now.

Overlayfs has been updated so it can be used with this release and
later.

BTW, overlayfs is still shipped into a dkms module mostly because it's
still experimental material. But depending what's the mainline decide it
might end up into the kernel.

To get/build overlayfs dkms:

  $ git clone git://git.mandriva.com/soft/dkms/overlayfs.git
  $ cd overlayfs
  $ git checkout -b v11 origin/v11
  $ rpmbuild -bb SPECS/overlayfs.spec

And finally to use it, here's an example:

  $ mkdir lower upper
  $ date >lower/A
  $ mount -t overlayfs -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper none /mnt
