[Qemu-stable] [ANNOUNCE] QEMU 2.4.1 Stable released

[Michael Roth]

Hi everyone,

I am pleased to announce that the QEMU v2.4.1 stable release is now
available at:

  http://wiki.qemu.org/download/qemu-2.4.1.tar.bz2

v2.4.1 is now tagged in the official qemu.git repository,
and the stable-2.4 branch has been updated accordingly:

  http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/stable-2.4

In addition to the normal array of general bug fixes, this release
includes security fixes/hardening for virtio-net (CVE-2015-7295).
Users of QEMU 2.4.0.1 or earlier should upgrade accordingly.

Thank you to everyone involved!
