Kernel prepatch 5.9-rc7

([Kernel] Sep 27, 2020 22:32 UTC (Sun) (corbet))


The [1]5.9-rc7 kernel prepatch is out for testing. " But while I do now know of any remaining gating issues any more, the fixes came in fairly late. So unless I feel insanely optimistic and/or a burning bush tells me that everything is bug-free, my plan right now is that I'll do another rc next Sunday rather than the final 5.9 release. And btw, please no more burning bushes. We're kind of sensitive about those on the West coast right now. "
