[$] A look at some 5.17 development statistics

At the conclusion of the 5.17 development cycle, 13038 non-mergechangesets had found their way into the mainline repository. That is alower level of activity than was seen for 5.16 (14,190 changesets) but wellabove 5.15 (12,337). In other words, this was a fairly typical kernelrelease. That is true in terms of where the work that made up the releasecame from as well.
