Hi!
This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 5.10.119 release. There are 163 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please let me know.
Is there some kind of back-story why we are doing massive changes to /dev/random? 5.19-rc1 is not even out, so third of those changes did not get much testing.
Did you miss the posting on the stable list that described all of this: https://lore.kernel.org/all/YouECCoUA6eZEwKf@zx2c4.com/
It seems we hit some problems, but I'm not sure if they are kernel problems or test infrastructure problems. Perhaps Chris can help?

I do not know how to decypher random test summaries like this, sorry.
