Linux 3.8

From: Linus Torvalds
Date: Mon Feb 18 2013 - 19:28:43 EST


The release got delayed a couple of days because I was waiting for
confirmation of a small patch, but hey, we could also say that it was
all intentional, and that this is the special "Presidents' Day
Release". It sounds more planned that way, no?

Anyway, the really good news is that things calmed down a lot on the
last week. There are noticeably fewer commits, and they are also all
quite small. The few commits with more than just a couple of lines
tend to be due to a couple of reverts, and two architecture patches
where some identifiers got renamed (tile), or some defines got moved
from the uapi file to a private header (x86). And there's one radeon
patch that uses a helper function instead of reading bytes directly.

And even those "bigger" patches weren't really that big.

There was a pending btrfs fix that might have merited another -rc, but
instead of delaying things I just didn't pull that one at all, and
we'll just do it as a stable patch instead. It's not even a new
problem anyway.

Anyway, thanks to everybody who kept last week calm.

Linus
