Linux 4.4 rc8

Normally, me doing an eighth release candidate means that there issome unresolved issue that still needs more time to get fixed. Thistime around, it just means that I want to make sure that everybody isback from the holidays and there isn't anything pending, and thatpeople have time to get their merge window pull requests all lined up.No excuses about how you didn't have time to get things done by thetime the merge window opened, now..So it's in all the usual places, and it's pretty small. It's abouthalf drivers (mostly network drivers, but some rdma stuff and asmattering of small other changes), with the rest being arch updates(mainly sparc, arm), some general networking code, and some cryptofixes.But it's all really pretty small. Which is as it should be, withholidays and just being late in the release cycle.Expect final 4.4 next weekend, unless something very unexpected happens.                  Linus
