[RELEASE] LTTng-modules 2.13.17 (Linux kernel tracer)

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Hi,

This is a stable release announcement for the LTTng kernel tracer,
a kernel tracer for the Linux kernel.

The most relevant news about this release is added support for
the Linux kernel v6.13 and for the RHEL 9.5 kernels by LTTng-modules
v2.13.17.

We are aware that this release of LTTng-modules fails to build
against sles15sp5 and Linux v6.13 on powerpc32 in our CI. We will
investigate and fix these in a future release, but we aim to release
promptly after Linux v6.13, so considering that LTTng-modules 2.13.x
has never successfully built against those kernels, those are not
considered release blockers.

Detailed change log:

2025-01-24 (Global Belly Laugh Day) LTTng modules 2.13.17
         * fix: include linux/fs.h for 'struct file' definition (v4.5)
         * fix: add missing check for __must_check 'lttng_file_ref_put()' (v6.13)
         * Fix: uprobe consumer handler signature changed in Linux 6.13.0-rc1
         * Fix: lookup_fdget_rcu removed in Linux 6.13.0-rc1
         * Fix: f_count replaced with f_ref in Linux 6.13.0-rc1
         * Fix: sched_stat_runtime changed in Linux 6.6.66
         * lttng-modules fix for RHEL 9.5 kernels

Thanks,

Mathieu
