Most of the changes in Linux kernel 4.2.5 are GPU updates, mostly for AMD graphics cards, but there’s also a fix for Nouveau, the open-source Nvidia graphics driver. Additionally, we can also notice improvements to the ARM, ARM64, SPARC, and x86 hardware architectures, as well as to the Btrfs and NFS filesystems, and various other updated drivers, especially for things like I2C, MD, MFD, PINCTRL, and networking.
