I've already described the background behind the lifecycle of this

If you have only just noticed it, you have tried zero -rc releases
during this cycle.  What's the point of having -rc releases if no
one in the ARM community tests them?

We might as well push our development stuff out just before Linus
releases a final release if the majority of ARM folk think that -rc
releases are not something they should be testing.

Quite the opposite, -rc releases are _important_ to test to ensure that
the quality of the final kernel is reasonable.  You can't rely on me
being able to test every damned ARM platform, or Tony to test every OMAP
platform.  As a developer, that's _your_ job to ensure that regressions
are found on the setup _you_ have.
