I'm announcing the release of the 6.18.12 kernel.

If your system did not boot in 6.18.11, then you should upgrade, this
reverts one problematic commit.  If the last stable release worked just
fine, no need to upgrade.

The updated 6.18.y git tree can be found at:
	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-6.18.y
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
	https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-s...

thanks,

greg k-h
