And I didn't even announce a -rc release for this kernel, yet I did a
release for it, sorry about that everyone.

The reason this happened was my scripts went and "take the review
comments for the kernel release and dump them in a mbox" triggered the
messages that were reviewing the "5.15.4-rc1" release as valid for the
5.4 release tree as the simple search was just for "5.4" in the subject
line. :(

So that caused the 5.15.4 and 5.4.161 release commits to have the
identical "Tested-by:" messages in it, ick.

Anyway, bonus kernel release, sorry about that everyone.  It might be
nice to have people test it, even though it does work for me here...

greg "release all the kernels!" k-h
