It's Easter Sunday here, but I don't let little things like randommajor religious holidays interrupt my kernel development workflow. Theoccasional scuba trip? Sure. But everybody sitting around eatingtraditional foods? No. You have to have priorities. There's only somuch memma you can eat even if your wife had to make it from scratchbecause nobody eats that stuff in the US.Anyway, rc6 is actually larger than I would have liked, which made mego back and look at history, and for some reason that's not all thatunusual. We recently had similar rc6 bumps in both 4.18 and 5.0.So I'm not going to worry about it. I think it's just random timing ofpull requests, and almost certainly at least partly due to thenetworking pull request in here (with just over a third of the changesbeing networking-related, either in drivers or core networking).Aside from the networking stuff, we've got the usual other driverupdates (nvdimm, iio, gpu stands out), arch updates (mainly x86 - kvmfixes stand out), and tooling (selftests and perf).And then we have various random collection of other changes: some coremm, some filesystem fixes, scheduler and tracing stuff.But despite rc6 being a bit larger than I'd hope for, all of it ispretty small, and I don't think there's anything really worrisome inhere. In fact, a lot of it is truly trivial stuff, some of it justspelling fixes and the like.Have a gander at the appended shortlog for details if you care, butmore importantly, give it a whirl and kick the tires...
