So rc5 is noticeably bigger than rc4 was, and my hope last week thatwe were starting to calm down and shrink the releases seems to havebeen premature.That said, most of the diffstat looks fairly flat (which tends toimply lots of small trivial changes rather than big invasive ones).There's some stuff going on in the mellanox mlx5 network driver, andthere is some nfs and overlayfs noise, but on the whole it just lookslike a lot of small fixes. It may be _more_ of those small fixes thanI'd prefer at this stage, but I suspect what happened was that rc4looked so nice and small simply because some of the fixes ended upbeing delayed until rc5.Not that any of this looks worrisome per se, but if things don't startcalming down from now, this may be one of those releases that willneed an rc8. We'll see.[ That said, looking at the stats of the individual commits, it alllooks pretty small and simple - there's just more of them than I wouldhave wished for ]The shortlog is appended for those who want to get a feel for thekinds of details that happened.
