I'm announcing the release of the 6.6.65 kernel.

This release only fixes a build regression for openrisc, and a runtime
regression for domU guests.  If you don't have problems with them, no
need to upgrade.

The updated 6.6.y git tree can be found at:
	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-6.6.y
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
	https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=summary

thanks,

greg k-h
