Stable kernel 5.10.1 released

([Kernel] Dec 14, 2020 20:32 UTC (Mon) (corbet))


The [1]5.10.1 stable kernel update has been released on an expedited schedule; it contains reverts for a couple of late-arriving 5.10 patches that turned out not to be as good an idea as it first seemed.

Graduating seniors, parents and friends...
Let me begin by reassuring you that my remarks today will stand up
to the most stringent requirements of the new appropriateness.
The intra-college sensitivity advisory committee has vetted the
text of even trace amounts of subconscious racism, sexism and classism.
Moreover, a faculty panel of deconstructionists have reconfigured
the rhetorical components within a post-structuralist framework, so as to
expunge any offensive elements of western rationalism and linear logic.
Finally, all references flowing from a white, male, eurocentric
perspective have been eliminated, as have any other ruminations deemed
denigrating to the political consensus of the moment.

Thank you and good luck.
-- Doonesbury, the University Chancellor's graduation speech.
