Subject: Linux 6.12-rc1

So two weeks have passed, and rc1 is out - the merge window is closed.

Despite conference travel (both for me and several maintainers),
things seemed to go mostly fairly normally. There's a couple of
notable new features in here: For one thing, PREEMPT_RT is now
mainlined and enabled as a config option (you do need to enable
"EXPERT" to get the question). For another, sched_ext also got merged.

That said, the bulk is - as always - all the plain old regular
updates, and that obviously means drivers dominate. We've got about
55% of the patch being drivers (and another 5% if you count the dts
files). Add in 5% doc updates, and 10% tooling (mostly perf and
selftests).

That leaves about a quarter of the overall changes as core kernel
code, split between arch updates, filesystems (yes, bcachefs, but also
btrfs, smb sever and client, netfs updates, xfs and finally core VFS
updates mostly in the form of 'struct fd' re-organisational cleanups).
And MM, core networking, Rust, security layer updates etc.

A little bit of everything, in other words. And nothing really looks
all that strange. As always, the summary below is just the log of my
merges, there's too much to list individually (some stats: 11k+
regular commits,  850+ merges, 1700+ different authors).

Let's get the testing and calming down period started, ok?
