Ahoy!
She's good to go, hoist anchor!
Here's some real booty for all you land-lubbers.
There's not too many changes, with t'bulk of the patch bein' defconfig
updates, but the shortlog at the aft of this here email describes the
details if you care, you scurvy dogs.
Header cleanups, various one-liners, and random other fixes.
