Well, if rc5 was bigger than usual, and I worried about what that
meant for this release, rc6 is positively tiny.
So I think it was just due to the usual random timing fluctuations,
probably mainly networking updates (which were in rc5, but not in
rc6). Which means that unless things change in the next two weeks, the
schedule for this release is going to be the usual one.
Most of the changes here are drivers (gpu and usb stand out, that's
not because of any huge changes, it's mainly because everything else
is even smaller) and some arch updates (mainly x86 kvm, but some
arm64, powerpc, s390, xtensa and RISC-V too).
The rest is random other stuff (with io_uring showing up again, but
much smaller this time).
The shortlog is appended - small and easy to scan if you care about the details.
So hey, in between all those extra helpings of memma - it is Easter,
after all - go ahead and do some more testing as we approach the final
weeks of the release,
Linus

No change in test results since last week, except that I added a number
of network interface sanity tests which all pass.
Build results:
total: 151 pass: 151 fail: 0
Qemu test results:
total: 460 pass: 459 fail: 1

Let's ping Frank for the alignment issue. If that promised patch
isn't timely (and trivial), I really think that removing the alignment
check is by now the way forward for that libftd failure.

Frank sent a patch with a fix/workaround yesterday, and I added my

Hmm, my reply isn't there (yet). I'll monitor and resend if needed.
Thanks,

Adding Rob, so that he will be in the loop.
