I'm announcing the release of the 4.8.4 kernel. And yeah, sorry about the quicker releases, I'll be away tomorrow and as they seem to have passed all of the normal testing, I figured it would be better to get them out earlier instead of later. And I like releasing stuff on this date every year...
All users of the 4.8 kernel series must upgrade.
The updated 4.8.y git tree can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
linux-4.8.y
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:

thanks,
greg k-h
