Kernel prepatch 4.2-rc1
Linus has released 4.2-rc1 and closed the
merge window for this development cycle. As Linus explains, 4.2 may, in
the end, not end up being the development cycle with the most commits ever,
but there is still a lot going on. "However, if you count the size
in pure number of lines changed, this really seems to be the biggest rc
we've ever had, with over a million lines added (and about a quarter
million removed). That beats the previous champion (3.11-rc1) that was huge
mainly due to Lustre being added to the staging tree." The source
of the biggest chunk of those new lines is the new amdgpu graphics driver.
