Good news everyone,

the Linux Test Project test suite stable release for *April 2015* has
been released.

Notable changes are:

* Continued effort to cleanup up old testcases and test library
(Special thanks to Coccinelle and spatch for making this easier)

* More sleep() calls were changed into proper synchronization
which saves a few minutes on test run time

* Cleanups, fixes and new tests in network testcases

* New testcases for futex() syscall

* New testcases for select() and poll() timeouts

* New mmap() regression testcase

* New regression test for hugepage leak

The latest version of the test-suite contains 3000+ tests for the Linux
and can be downloaded at:
