Things continue to be fairly calm, although I'm pretty sure I'll stilldo an rc7 in this series.There's nothing particularly scary in here - there's a fix for along-standing infiniband interface problem, but since you actuallyhave to have the hardware for that, it's not like that is going toaffect all that many people, and the workaround was prettystraightforward. The bulk of the rest is really just the normal randomnoise. Drivers (sound, gpu, ethernet being the bulk of it),architectures (arm, s390, x86), networking is the bulk of it.Shortlog appended for your edification,                Linus
