It's great to see all these new features entering the kernel. Here are a couple of other things I've seen in recent changelogs:
- The 5.4 kernel can use CIFS as a root filesystem, meaning CIFS can replace NFS for diskless boot.
- The 5.3 and 5.4 kernels both include prep for merging PREEMPT_RT into mainline. This will be a fantastic addition that benefits embedded Linux nerds like me.
