So I normally do the releases on a Sunday early afternoon, but I'm in
an unusual timezone, and that would have been almost a full day
earlier than usual. So I delayed things to the point where it was at
least Sunday back home, even if not even remotely afternoon.
Other than the timing, there's not a whole lot unusual here. The
diffstat looks fairly flat, which means "mostly pretty small changes".
There's a couple of bumps here and there, but nothing worrisome: the
biggest of them is in fact just a selftest update. The bulk of the
(non-selftest) patches are in drivers (networking and gpu dominating -
as is tradition), with some filesystem updates (bcachefs, but also smb
and erofs), and the rest being mostly core networking and some
architecture updates.
For details, see the appended shortlog, or just go dig even deeper in
the git tree itself.
So please do go forth and test, it all looks safe,
