But if somebody didn't get their pull request in in time, they shouldn't have left it so late - and there's always 5.18. Never fear - we'll not run out of numbers. I was nervous that this merge window would be more painful than usual due to my family-related travels, but I have to give thanks to people: a lot of you sent your pull requests early in the merge window, and while there were a couple of hiccups I hit early on, that was all before switching my main workstation to a laptop. Everything seems to have gone fairly smoothly. Knock wood. 5.17 doesn't seem to be slated to be a huge release, and everything looks fairly normal. We've got a bit more activity than usual in a couple of corners of the kernel (random number generator and the fscache rewrite stand out), but even with those things, the big picture view looks very much normal: the bulk is various driver updates, with architectures updates, documentation, and tooling being the bulk of the rest. Even with a total rewrite, that fscache diff looks more like a blip in the big picture. And hey, it may not be a huge release, but the full shortlog would still be much too big to post - or scan through. So as is traditional, I'm just appending my mergelog as a highlevel view of what's been going on.
