It appears that Linux kernel 4.0.6 is a massive release that includes a significant amount of changes, starting from updated drivers and ending with improvements to the Btrfs file system and the networking stack. Taking a closer look, we can see that Linux kernel 4.0.6 updates the ARM, ARM64, MIPS, and x86 hardware architectures, fixes multiple issues with the Btrfs filesystem, adds great improvements to networking, especially for the IPv6 and IPv4 protocols, and includes several sound enhancements.
