 Kernel prepatch 6.11-rc7

Linus has released https://lwn.net/Articles/989425/
 for testing.


	And I wish I could say that things have calmed down, but I can't
	really say that. In fact, rc7 is slightly bigger than both rc6 and
	rc5 were, both in number of commits, and in actual diff
	size. That's not really how it should work out.

	That said, there's nothing *scary* in here. 


He is apparently "still waffling" about whether to release 6.11 next
weekend, which would cause the 6.12 merge window to land on top of the
Maintainers Summit, Linux Plumbers Conference, and Open Source Summit.
