Linux 4.9 rc8

So if anybody has been following the git tree, it should come as nosurprise that I ended up doing an rc8 after all: things haven't beenbad, but it also hasn't been the complete quiet that would have mademe go "no point in doing another week".Extra kudos to Arnd, who actually root-caused the incredibly annoying"modversions do not work with new versions of binutils", bisecting itto a particular change to symbol handling in binutils, and then addinga small one-liner patch to the kernel to work around the issue. Wealready had other workarounds in place, but it's always good to knowexactly what in the tool chain changed to cause things like this.But that one-liner was just one of 163 small fixes (not countingmerges) in rc8. That's pretty small (for the kernel), but certainlynot completely quiet. Full details appended, but it's mostlynetworking (error path leaks stand out, but it's a random collection)and random drivers, with a couple of small fixes to core stuff(vm/fs/kernel).
