Subject: Linux 2.6.23-rc5

I'm making ready to leave for the kernel summit (as are probably a lot of
other core kernel people), and as part of that, there's a 2.6.23-rc5 out
there now.

Hopefully we've addressed most regressions, so please do give it a good
testing.

The shortlog and diffstat are appended: the diffstat is uglified by some
powerpc defconfig updates, but otherwise it all looks pretty nice and
small. The shortlog is fairly informative if you care about the details of
what changed, but it does end up boiling down to "fixing a number of
generally pretty small issues". Mostly in drivers and SCTP.

So have fun, give it a go, and expect a quiet week next week.

Hi;

After upgrading -rc5 (i'm currently using linus's latest git + appArmor and
bootsplash patchset) my CD/DVD-ROM suddenly disappeared :).

You can find the logs and config from [1], i'm on a vacation with unstable
network connection so i may not respond fast enough and i don't have enough
time to bisect for a while :(.

It seems my system is stable again with patch from

http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/2/219

Though I didn't get a light show on hang...
