Linus Torvalds releasedthe 5.10 kernel on December 13 at the end of a typical nine-week development cycle.At that point, 16,174 non-merge changesets had been pulled into themainline; that makes 5.10 a larger cycle than 5.9, but it falls just shortof the record set by 5.8, which ended with 16,308 changesets. For the mostpart 5.10 is just another routine kernel release, but there are a couple of interestingthings to be seen in the overall statistics.
