Subject: linux-next: trees being removed

The following trees are going to be removed from linux-next because they
have not been updated in more than a year. If you want a tree restored,
just let me know (and update its branch).

fscrypt-current and fsverity-current are technically still in use. I just
haven't used them recently because there haven't been any bug fixes that needed
to go in while other commits were already applied for the next merge window.

I've updated them to v6.9-rc1.

I'd guess that some of those *-fixes branches have something similar going on,
where they may be rarely used fixes branches as opposed to the main development
branch.

This is exactly my case. I don't mind my branch being dropped and I can
ask to add it back once I have urgent fixes.

Or you could just update it to -rc1 every merge window or so and it
will hang around. I don't mind keeping branches around that will get
used sometime. I just don't like them being too old.

I've done that now and I'll try to remember to update at each -rc1.

Same here. It turned out that the next branch is good enough for me.

OK, I have removed just the ecryptfs, modules-fixes, tee-fixes and
ubifs-fixes trees. Please just ask if you want them reinstated.
