So with -rc6, we hopefully should leave the irq-related regressions behind us. There were issues both with devices that started enabling MSI (which seem to trigger hardware bugs, although there's also been discussion about what we should do to make things safer) and with the new genirq layer that showed problems with edge-triggered irq's (notably legacy ISA interrupts, or, more commonly these days, the 16-bit PCMCIA interrupts that are basically just ISA in another formfactor). Thanks for everybody involved in whittling down that regression list. Also, apart from the regression tracking, we've had some other updates, eg infiniband and DVB fixes, network driver fixes, some networking fixes etc. The ShortLog is appended, and gives a mostly readable picture of what has been going on. But the main thing to take away is: regressions fixed, and not a whole lot of changes since -rc5 (it may not look that way, but a lot of these things are essentially one-liners or close to it, so the total diff between -rc5 and -rc6 is actually just about 5k lines, which is not a whole lot, considering).
