Things really _have_ calmed down, and hopefully we've also resolved a lot
of the regressions in -rc3.

That said, the diffstat shows two things standing out:

- continued rename of arch include files (if you don't enable rename
detection and filter it out). ARM, AVR32 and m68knommu this time.

- the inclusion of the ath9k wireless driver (and to a smaller degree,
watchdog driver updates). The dirstat says it all:

2.0% arch/avr32/configs/
2.1% arch/avr32/
2.2% arch/
2.4% drivers/char/
3.4% drivers/net/wan/
58.8% drivers/net/wireless/ath9k/
58.9% drivers/net/wireless/
65.3% drivers/net/
7.9% drivers/watchdog/
84.1% drivers/

ie that ath9k driver is the bulk of the whole patch.

But all the small changes are where the regression fixes are, and other
random improvements. And they're all over. The ShortLog (appended)
probably gives a taste of it.
