Hi!

This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 5.10.56 release.
There are 67 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.

Not sure what went wrong, but 50 or so patches disappeared from the queue:

48156f3dce81b215b9d6dd524ea34f7e5e029e6b (origin/queue/5.10) btrfs: fix lost inode on log replay after mix of fsync, rename and inode eviction

FWIW, the git repository matches the shortlog and summary.

git log --pretty=oneline origin/linux-5.10.y

seems to match shortlog/summary.

git log --pretty=oneline origin/queue/5.10

is unexpectedly short. Short changelog can also be seen on the web:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable-rc.git/log/?h=queue/5.10

(and 4.19/ 4.4 repositories have same problem, it is even more visible
there.)


Ah, that explains it. No idea what the queue/ branches are for.
My scripts use the linux- branches.
