I intend to upload linux to unstable tomorrow (14th April).

Aside from the upstream stable updates, the following changes are
pending:

  * Fix autopkgtest failure due to pycodestyle violation
  * [cloud] Re-enable kernel page merge functionality (Closes: #955366)
  * [cloud] Apply a number of additional optimizations (Closes: #947759)
    - Statically link nvme and ext4 drivers with the kernel
    - [amd64] Re-enable SCHED_MC_PRIO
    - Switch to LZ4 for compression
    - Disable a number of additional drivers unlikely to be found in
      cloud environments
  * drm: Disable DRM_LEGACY (DRI1)
  * WireGuard: Update for renaming of skb_reset_tc() to skb_reset_redirect()
  * Remove libbpf. (See: #948041)
  * Provide wireguard-modules as stop-gap for packages.
  * linux-cpupower: Add libcap to Build-Depends and turbostat linker flags

There will be an ABI bump.

Ben.
