Linux 4.10-rc8

2017-02-12T21:39:25Z

Hey, it's another week, and I could have released the final 4.10.

It's not been all that busy, although we did have a number of small
last-minute regression fixes (some just reverting stuff that caused
problems and needed more thought, others fixing things). But nothing
out of the ordinary, and I wouldn't have felt bad about just doing the
final release today.

But I decided that there's also no huge overriding reason to do so
(other than getting back to the usual "rc7 is the last rc" schedule,
which would have been nice), and with travel coming up, I decided that
I didn't really need to open the merge window. I've done merge windows
during travel before, but I just prefer not to. If it was the second
week of the merge window when the big bulk of stuff had been merged,
that would be one thing, but that's not how the schedule turned out.

Obviously any developers that do have everything ready to go for the
merge window (and hey, you should, shouldn't you?) and know that
you'll be busy the week after, you are more than welcome to just send
your pull requests early. I'll keep the pull request around, never
fear.

And if not, you now have the extra week to polish your work ;)

Shortlog appended, but it all looks pretty normal: almost exactly half
of the patch is drivers, with a third of the rest being arch updates
(arm, powerpc and x86). The rest is mostly networking and some
filesystem updates, with a smattering of other things (docs, perf
tooling, header files, misc). About a third of the commits are marked
for stable.
