This was the second largest linux-next (and may have been the largest
if June 1 had not been a pubic holiday here).

As usual, the executive friendly graph is at
http://neuling.org/linux-next-size.html :-)

(No merge commits counted, next-20200602 was the first linux-next after
the merge window opened.)

Commits in v5.8-rc1 (relative to v5.7):            14206
Commits in next-20200602:                          13631
Commits with the same SHA1:                        12174
Commits with the same patch_id:                      843 (1)
Commits with the same subject line:                  130 (1)

(1) not counting those in the lines above.

So commits in -rc1 that were in next-20200602:     13147 92%

Some breakdown of the list of extra commits (relative to next-20200602)
in -rc1:

Some of Andrew's patches are fixes for other patches in his tree (and
have been merged into those).

Those commits by me are from the quilt series (mainly Andrew's mmotm
tree).
