Alan levele, változások logja:"Since Linus is in hiding this is a collected set of diffs I'm using right now. It has the worst of the current security stuff I know about fixed up but I've not looked into older stuff yet. Also a few things I needed for my test hardware that went walkins like Zoom Video."
