In # the end, things didn't seem as bad as I feared they would. But of # course, it's also possible I missed things. # # However, this has been in linux-next for basically an entire cycle # now, so I'm not overly worried. I've also been daily driving this on # my laptop for all of 6.1. Still, this series, and the ones sent for # 6.1 don't total in quantity to what I thought it'd be, so I will be on # the lookout for breakage. # # We could receive a few reports that are quickly fixable. Hopefully we # won't receive a barrage of reports that would result in a revert. And # just maybe we won't receive any reports at all and nobody will even # notice.
