    [$] 5.11 Merge window, part 1
    When Linus Torvalds released
    the 5.10 kernel
    , he noted that the 5.11 merge window would run up
    against the holidays. He indicated strongly that maintainers should send
    him pull requests early as a result. Maintainers appear to have listened;
    over 10,000 non-merge changesets were pulled into the mainline in the first
    three days of the 5.11 merge window. Read on for a summary of the most
    significant changes in that flood of patches.
