We have almost always updated the linux kernel to the "mainline"
release. We do skip intermediate releases though because of the
frequency of releases.
For instance, today is the 90th day of the year, but there have been
about 34 releases. The first release of the year was 5.4.8. There is a
little overlap there because 5.4 is a longterm release. In any case
there have been 13 releases for 5.5 since February 1st (14 if you count
5.6).
I would like to propose keeping the kernel at the most recent long term
support (LTS) version for the book. Users can, of course, use whatever
version they want.
What do you think?
