Linux 4.8 Released

So the last week was really quiet, which maybe means that I couldprobably just have skipped rc8 after all. Oh well, no real harm done.This obviously means that the merge window for 4.9 is open, and Iappreciate the people who already sent in some pull requests early dueto upcoming travel or other reasons. I'll start pulling thingstomorrow, and have even the most eager developers and testershopefully test the final 4.8 release before the next developmentkernels start coming 😉Anyway, there's a few stragging fixes since rc8 listed below: it's amixture of arch fixes (arm, mips, sparc, x86), drivers (networking,nvdimm, gpu) and generic code (some core networking, with a fewfilesystem, cgroup and and vm things).All of it pretty small, and there really aren't that many of them.  Goforth and test,                     Linus
