Actually, the question was "Are there enough Linus cycles to do KS
and all the merges in 2 weeks?". ;)

(And when I wrote "and everybody will be busy at KS", I didn't mean "Ted T'So
won't have his tree ready to pull", I meant "Linus finally gets back to his
hotel room and tries to merge Ted's tree, hits some really weird merge issue,
and Ted's not answering his e-mail or his phone because he's still discussing
something over beer and pizza down at the hotel bar, so that's *another* merge
that waits till the next day..."

OK, so Linus will get some sleep after -rc1, which will be the customary
2 weeks.  I can deal with that answer. ;)
