This has been a nice quiet week, so rc6 is pretty tiny. Everythinglooks like we're on a usual schedule - I'll make an rc7, but hopefullythat will be it.Mostly driver changes (usb, gpu, sound, scsi, md), but it's all tiny.Some arch fixes (x86 and microblaze, tiny changes to others), and somefilesystem fixes (a couple of small core vfs fixlets, and some btrfsand nfs fixes).Go test, things are stable and there's no reason to worry, but all theusual reasons to just do a quick build and verification thateverything works for everybody. Ok?                  Linus
