Linus Torvalds has released 6.16-rc2,which is "admittedlyeven smaller than usual", though rc2 is not uncommonly one of the smallerrelease candidates.
It may be that people are taking a breather after a fairly sizablemerge window, but it might also be seasonal, with Europe starting tosee summer vacations... We'll see how this goes.

The diffstat looks somewhat unusual, with a lot of one-liners withboth ARC and pincontrol having (presumably independently) ended updoing some unrelated trivial cleanups.

But even that is probably noticeable only because everything else ispretty small. That "everything else" is mostly network drivers (andbluetooth) and bcachefs, with some rust infrastructure and corenetworking changes thrown in.
