I'm announcing the release of the 4.9.106 kernel.
Not everyone who uses 4.9 needs to upgrade here, it's a big sync of the objtool codebase to make future maintenance of 4.9.y easier over time, that's all. But of course, updating and verifying that nothing broke is always appreciated :)
The updated 4.9.y git tree can be found at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-4.9.y and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git%3Ba=summar...
thanks,
greg k-h
