[$] The rest of the 6.2 merge window

The world got a special Christmas present from Linus Torvalds this year inthe form of the 6.2-rc1kernel prepatch. By the time the merge window closed, 13,687 non-mergechangesets had been pulled into the mainline for the 6.2 release. This wasthe busiest merge window since 5.13 (which brought in 14.231 changesets) inmid-2021, and quite a bit busier than 6.1 was - but comparable to the late5.x releases. Just under 4,000 of those changesets were pulled after the first-half summary was written; there werequite a few significant changes to be found in those late-arriving patches.
