That idea was spectacularly short lived :/  Assuming -rc2 fixes the
swapfile bug, I'll plan on rebasing both -next branches to -rc2 early
next week.  This should have zero impact on the audit tree (audit/next
is current empty), and a minimal impact on the selinux/next branch as
we only have one small patch in there at the moment.

If for some reason this causes anyone a problem due to merge
conflicts, you can still submit your patches (assuming they apply
cleanly to the stable-5.12 branch) and I'll take care of the conflict.

Thanks for your understanding.
