Hi! TWIMC just a quick heads up for the rc3 kernel rebase in rawhide, as
I noticed a problem during my kernel vanilla builds that afaics will hit
Fedora also and can easily be missed during the update afaics:
The COPYING changed Friday night (see below), which will result in a RPM
file conflict if not worked around (sorry, German error message, but I
guess you'll get the idea):
Datei /usr/share/licenses/kernel-core/COPYING-5.6.0 aus der
Installation von
kernel-core-5.6.0-0.rc3.git0.1.vanilla.knurd.1.fc33.x86_64 kollidiert
mit der Datei aus dem Paket kernel-core
-5.6.0-0.rc2.git3.1.fc33.x86_64
CU, knurd
P.S.: Ohh, BTW: 0001-x86-Don-t-declare-__force_order-in-kaslr_64.c.patch
can be dropped, as a fix was merged upstream (that's more obvious, but I
thought I just mentioned it anyway just in case it makes somebodys life
easier)

COPYING: state that all contributions really are covered by this file
Explicitly state that all contributions to the kernel source tree
really are covered under this COPYING file in case someone thought
otherwise. Lawyers love to be pedantic, even more so than software
engineers at times, and this sentence makes them sleep easier.
