Nope, all should be good.  During the merge window (the next 2 weeks) I
will queue things up in the staging-testing branch, so people should use
that, but note that it will be rebased at times, so things will get
tricky until 4.11-rc1 is out.

If anyone has any specific questions about this, please let me know.

thanks,
