Happy new year,

this release is a very special for me.
I had to apply zero null nada patches of mine or others :-).

The calm days between Xmas and new year, I started again to build and
test Linux-next (aka v3.20) kernels .

This was primarily to play with loop-mq from block-next tree.
As a sidenote I reported some bugs in fio, now we have v2.2.4.

En plus, I refreshed my build-script for -next (see attached file).
And I am really happy to see my builddeb patches in kbuild-next.

Thanks to all involved people.

Regards,
