    SubjectLinux 3.8-rc1
    The longest night of the year is upon us (*), and what better thing to
    do than get yourself some nice mulled wine, sit back, relax, and play
    with the most recent rc kernel?

    This has been a big merge window: we've got more commits than any
    other kernel in the v3.x kernel series (although v3.2-rc1 was *almost*
    as big). It's been a rather busy merge window, in other words.

    The diffstat looks normal: about 63% of the patch being to drivers
    (staging, networking, scsi, gpu, sound, drbd etc) , 18% architecture
    updates (with various ARM platform things being the bulk of it as
    usual, sigh), and the rest being "various", like core networking,
    filesystems (new f2fs flash-optimized filesystem) and include files
    etc.

    I'm appending the "merge shortlog" which is about the only half-way
    readable automated data I can give you. There's a *ton* of stuff here.
    Go out and test it,

    Linus

    (*) And by "us" I mean mainly people in the same timezone and
    hemisphere as I am. Because I'm too self-centered to care about
    anybody else.
