Software Update: Linux Kernel 2.5.46

The work in the 2.5 development kernel of Linux does not stand still, version 2.5.46 has been released. The full changelog is here to watch. Linus tells us the following about this release:

Ok, our dear master.kernel.org seems to be back from the dead, which means that I can punish it some more and upload stuff to it again.

2.5.46 merges some more stuff (yeah, I still have stuff in my mailbox, but I’m calmer now that I don’t forsee any more huge issues), and is pretty much all over the map. Merges with Alan, Al and Andrew, and m68k stuff from Geert. Sysfs from Pat, and ext2/3 updates from Ted.
