I'm announcing the release of the 6.12.76 kernel.

Only upgrade if you've observed a build failure with 6.12.75.

The updated 6.12.y git tree can be found at:
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-6.12.y
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
        https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=summary


Thanks,
Sasha
