Kernel 4.6-rc6 has been released, and details of changes since -rc5 are here: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1605.0/00190.html

It seems that there will be (at least..) an rc7, before ‘Final’..

Tested with patched VMware 12.1.0 (vmnet and vmmon) and patched NVIDIA (364.19) and both still compile OK..   See my previous article http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=1709 for more info..
