according to the numbers it's a fairly average -rc2, maybe it even has
slightly more changes than usual.
That said, there doesn't seem to be a lot of scary stuff. A fair
amount of the changes are some (hopefully largely final) fixups for
the header file changes, and then there are the three pull requests
mentioned in -the rc1 announcement: HSI (high-speed serial interface)
framework, dma-buf prime, and the DMA mapping stuff. Those three all
got several people piping up and saying "yes, please pull". Pohmelfs
didn't get merged, for the simple reason that nobody actually asked
for it.
Apart from the header file fixups and the three delayed pulls, there's
the usual fixes. I'm going to be stricter about pulls from here on
out, there was a lot of "noise", not just pure fixes. Some of it as
induced by me: a series of selinux patches by Eric Paris to make
selinux wrapper stack usage much better.
Bulk of changes in some architecture files (arm, tile, powerpc, x86)
and in drivers (especially a networking but also regulator, drm and
mmc). And some power management updates.
Shortlog is appended. And I'm hoping -rc3 will already have a
noticeably shorter shortlog.
