Kernel prepatch 5.15-rc2

[Kernel] Posted Sep 20, 2021 13:17 UTC (Mon) by corbet

The 5.15-rc2 kernel prepatch is out for testing.

So I've spent a fair amount of this week trying to sort out all the odd warnings, and I want to particularly thank Guenter Roeck for his work on tracking where the build failures due to -Werror come from.

Is it done? No. But on the whole I'm feeling fairly good about this all, even if it has meant that I've been looking at some really odd and grotty code. Who knew I'd still worry about some odd EISA driver on alpha, after all these years? A slight change of pace ;)
