So 5.8 may end up- being a big release, but rc2 looks fairly normal.

Despite having one pull request that missed rc1 by five minutes (and
thus getting pulled into rc2) and having a couple of small series of
"post-rc1 cleanup after we're past the conflicts", and despite being
one of the largest merge windows ever, last week was fairly calm.

So rc2 isn't particularly big or scary, and falls right in the normal range.

We'll see how much of that is the usual "catch our breath after the
merge window", and how much of that is just "5.8 looks fairly normal
despite being large".

Shortlog appended, there's nothing that looks alarming to me. It's a
mix of arch fixes, GPU driver fixes, filesystems, selftests and misc
small noise all over.

So whether you're a father or not (and whether you live in one of the
countries that celebrate it today or not), have a happy Father's Day.
And go test, it's not scary. Ok?

Linus

Thanks, man! time to give it a spin...-rc2 build...

Thanks,
Bhaskar
