I see posts on LWN (or other sources) for kernel minor version releases,
such as this one: https://lwn.net/Articles/811334/ The notes will

Sorry for the double post; I got a mail-undeliverable from Google so I
thought it didn't go through and retried it. Turns out it got to the
mailing list (both times) but not to gmail recipients because Google
