Linaro QEMU 2011.09 released

[Peter Maydell]

The Linaro Toolchain Working Group is pleased to announce the release
of Linaro QEMU 2011.09.

Linaro QEMU 2011.09 is the latest monthly release of
qemu-linaro. Based off upstream (trunk) QEMU, it includes a
number of ARM-focused bug fixes and enhancements.

New in this month's release:
 - linux-user mode now supports the 64 bit cmpxchg kernel helpers
   (only needed for applications compiled for ARMv6 or lower)
 - PL111 display controller now supported; this fixes a problem
   where BGR was interpreted as RGB on recent versatilepb kernels
Plus a few other minor bug fixes and the usual round of upstream
fixes and improvements.

Known issues:
 - The beagle and beaglexm models still do not support USB networking;
   we intend to fix this for the 2011.10 release
 - There may be some problems with running multithreaded programs in
   linux-user mode (LP:823902)
