New version of Linux Kernel available

Linux Kernel 3.11 was released.

From the release announcement:

"As some people noticed, I got distracted ("Ooh, look, a squirrel..") and never wrote an announcementfor -rc7. My bad. But it wasn't actually all that interesting a release apart from the date, and it had a silly compile error in ohci-pci if you hadn't enabled CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME, so we'll just forget -rc7 ever happened, ok?
Instead, go and get the real 3.11 release, which is out there, allshiny and ready to be compiled and loved.

Since rc7 (ok, I lied, it happened) there's been just small fixes. Most of them came in from the networking tree, but there's some all over: some random filesystem fixes, a couple of sound fixes, a
/proc/timer_list fix, things like that. Nothing really stands out (unless you happened to use the new soft-dirty code, that had a buglet that could really hurt), but let's hope we don't have some silly configuration that doesn't even compile this time around."

The Linux kernel is the operating system kernel used by the Linux family of Unix-like operating systems. It is a prominent example of free and open source software.

The Linux kernel is released under the GNU General Public License version 2 (GPLv2) (plus some firmware images with various non-free licenses), and is developed by contributors worldwide. Day-to-day development discussions take place on theLinux kernel mailing list.

The Linux kernel was initially conceived and created in 1991 by Finnish computer science student Linus Torvalds. Linux rapidly accumulated developers and users who adapted code from other free software projects for use with the new operating system. The Linux kernel has received contributions from thousands of programmers. All Linux distributions released have been based upon the Linux kernel.
