This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 6.1.148 release.
There are 253 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response
to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please
let me know.

When I was starting the build, I did get a lot of strange warning messages from a Python script which I have never seen before in a kernel build. I upgraded this machine some days ago from Proxmox VE 8.4 (based on Debian 12 Bookworm) to Proxmox VE 9.0 (bases on Debian 13 Trixie), so I now have Python 3.13.5. Before the upgrade it was Python 3.11. It now also has GCC 14.2 instead of GCC 12 before.

The messages I'm seeing are these (with some context), and I'm unfortunately not knowledgeable enough to understand their significance:

I will start over with trying to build the other 6.y stable RCs and see whether this is specific to 6.1.148-rc1 or whether it occurs there, too.
