Right on schedule two weeks after the 6.4 release, here we are and the merge window is closed.
Nothing hugely unusual stands out - we had some VM annoyance, but the fixes for that don't even show in the diffstat, which is (as usual) dominated by drivers, with tooling and architecture updates a distant second and third.
And even if you filter out all the drivers, tooling and architecture changes out, the diff is still dominated by header file updates (much of it due to some re-organization around our atomic ops) and documentation updates.
At only after you filter out _that_ do you start seeing the core changes - various filesystem updates (btrfs, ovlfs, f2fs, ext4), core networking code, and then core kernel and mm updates.
Anyway, none of it looks hugely unusual. The biggest single mention probably goes to what wasn't merged, with the bcachefs pull request resulting in a long thread (we didn't hit a hundred emails yet, but it's not far away).
Let's calm this party down. I have this slight suspicion that this may be one of those releases that may drag out, not because there are any particular issues I expect problems with, but simply due to lot of Europe going on vacation for the month of August. But who knows... We'll see how things develop.
And below is obviously just the usual shortlog of my merges, since at around 12k non-merge commits, the full shortlog is much too big (even if this was a fairly small merge window).
