NP. This was a fairly unusual late rc window. It's normally quiet this
period, but first I was distracted by some of the Spectre detail
discussions, and then we had a few other random odd things come in, so
instead of using this week for going through my queues, I was spending
it more on discussion.

But the strscpy patch makes just as much - or more - in the 5.16 merge
window anyway, so it's all good.
