Ok, normally I do this on Sunday afternoon, but occasionally it
happens a day early like now to avoid people timing me.
In fact, I was planning on doing it yesterday evening this time around
because I was so annoyed with lots of late pull requests on Friday
(and some today), but ended up going to dinner and not getting
everything done, so it's only one day early. Next time...
This looks like a fairly regular release, and as always, rc1 is much
too large to post even the shortlog for. So just my rough "mergelog"
that shows who I pulled from and a oneliner description of the pull.
Once again, the diffstat is absolutely dominated by some AMD gpu
header files, but if you ignore that, things look pretty regular, with
about two thirds drivers and one third "rest" (architecture, core
kernel, core networking, tooling).
Slightly unusual is the Documentation updates, which are a fairly
noticeable part of that "rest" (almost half) due to continued work to
regularize and clean up stuff.
Get testing,
Linus
