Kernel prepatch 5.15-rc1
Linus has released 5.15-rc1 and closed themerge window for this development cycle.
So 5.15 isn't shaping up to be a particularly large release, atleast in number of commits. At only just over 10k non-mergecommits, this is in fact the smallest rc1 we have had in the 5.xseries. We're usually hovering in the 12-14k commit range.That said, counting commits isn't necessarily the best measure, andthat might be particularly true this time around. We have a few newsubsystems, with NTFSv3 and ksmbd standing out.
