  1. Update kernel to latest 6.1.112

    The main purpose of this kernel update is to pull in fixes
    addressing virtio-net driver performance regression introduced
    in the kernel version 6.1.103 by commit:
    
    5b1997487a3f net: missing check virtio
    
    We observed a drop in the network throughput of virtio-net interfaces
    (used by EVE to connect apps into network instances) by ~80% when
    TSO/GSO (segmentation offloading) is enabled.
    
    This was fixed in the Linux kernel version 6.1.111 by commits:
    
    f01c5e335fbb net: drop bad gso csum_start and offset in virtio_net_hdr
    34aaedb052cb net: tighten bad gso csum offset check in virtio_net_hdr
