Linux 5.17-rc3 |

Things look fairly normal so far, with a pretty average number of
commits for an rc3 release.
The diffstat shows that we've had more filesystem activity than is
perhaps usual, The filesystem activity is all over, ranging from cifs
re-introducing fscache support after the rewrite, to vfs-level error
handling fixes, to just regular filesystem-specific fixes (btrfs,
ext4, xfs), to some unicode Kconfig cleanups. So it's not one single
thing, it just happened that we had more filesystem stuff than is
perhaps common at this point.
That said, driver fixes (networking, gpu, sound, pin control, platform
drivers,scsi etc) still dominate. On the driver side, some reverts to
re-enable hw-accelerated scrolling for legacy fbdev devices perhaps
stand out.
Outside of that, it's a mixed bag of random stuff - the usual arch
updates (kvm noise stands out), generic networking and core kernel,
and tooling (selftests and perf). And some documentation fixes.
Shortlog appended for more details, but I don't see anything that
makes me worried for the 5.17 release. Knock wood.
Please go test,
Linus
