Kernel release status

The current 2.6 prepatch is 2.6.23-rc7, released by Linus on September 19. It contains a fair number of fixes and the return of the sk98lin driver. This should be the last prepatch before the final 2.6.23 release. See the long-format changelog for the details.

The current -mm release is 2.6.23-rc6-mm1. Recent changes to -mm include a patch to disable the timerfd() system call (to give time to work out what the API should actually be), randomization of the brk() system call on i386 and x86_64 systems, and lots of fixes.
