[$] The rest of the 7.2 merge window
Linus Torvalds released 7.2-rc1and closed the 7.2 merge window on June28; by that time, 13,412non-merge commits had found their way into the mainline. That makes thisthe busiest merge window since the 6.7 development cycle in 2024 (15,418commits, including 2,800 for the entire bcachefs development history).Just under half of those commits arrived after LWN's summary of the first half of the mergewindow was written. As usual, the commits in the latter part of themerge window were more heavily focused on fixes, but there were still a lotof new features and significant changes merged as well.
