  1. linux: Add stable version 4.9.13

    Do as Greg sayss [1]:
    
    > All users of the 4.9 kernel series must upgrade.
    
    Changes for Linux 4.9.13 [2][3]:
    
    > Immediately after announcing the release of the first maintenance update
    > to the Linux 4.10 kernel series, renowned kernel maintainer Greg
    > Kroah-Hartman announced the availability of the Linux 4.9.13 and 4.4.52
    > LTS kernels.
    >
    > This is a bit unexpected because it's been only three days since the
    > Linux 4.9.12 and 4.4.51 LTS kernels have been released, so you can
    > imagine that the changes implemented in today's Linux kernel 4.9.13,
    > which was finally marked as longterm on kernel.org, and Linux kernel
    > 4.4.52 LTS are kept to a minimum. According to their appended shortlogs,
    > a total of 31 files were changed in Linux 4.9.13 LTS, with 365
    > insertions and 122 deletions, and 24 files in Linux 4.4.52 LTS, with 218
    > insertions and 121 deletions.

    > "I'm announcing the release of the 4.9.13 [and 4.4.52] kernel. All users
    > of the 4.9 [and 4.4.y] kernel series must upgrade. The updated 4.9.y git
    > tree can be found at:
    > git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git

    > Both Linux 4.9.13 and 4.4.52 LTS kernels include a bunch of updated USB

    > (Realtek rtlwifi, Mellanox mlx5 Ethernet), RTC and TTY drivers. A couple
    > of small fixes have been implemented for the x86 architecture and XFS
    > file system, and the networking stack was updated with various Datagram
    > Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP), IrDA (Infrared Data Association),
    > kernel connection multiplexer (KCM), Logical Link Control (LLC), and
    > Netfilter improvements.
    >
    > If you're using a GNU/Linux distribution powered by a kernel from the
    > long-term supported Linux 4.9 or 4.4 series, you are urged to update as
    > soon as possible to the Linux kernel 4.9.13 LTS or Linux kernel 4.4.52
    > LTS, which you can download from the stable repositories of your
    > operating system when they become available there. OS vendors using
    > these kernels are also urged to download the source tarballs right now
    > from kernel.org or via our website and update their systems.
