Kernel prepatch 4.10-rc8
Linus has released one more kernel prepatch, 4.10-rc8, rather than the final 4.10 releasethat had been expected. He said that 4.10 could have come out this week, but hethought better of it. "But I decided that there's also no hugeoverriding reason to do so (other than getting back to the usual "rc7 isthe last rc" schedule, which would have been nice), and with travel comingup, I decided that I didn't really need to open the merge window. I've donemerge windows during travel before, but I just prefer not to."
