Updated my review scripts to check builds vs. allnoconfig, clang, rust, nommu, arm64.

Constantly developing these based on my work and stuff that I miss + comes back to bite :)

It's public in case people are interested but obv. fairly dedicated to my workflow

when I was a hobbyist I wanted to add fancy new amazing features to the kernel. now I realize that, at work, I spend moooost of my time reviewing and discussing things, and fixing bugs!

**checks how many patches I better review until the next merge window comes**

@hyeyoo @ljs it's too late, stuff is already moving to mm-stable :(

(I mean it's still better to review than not, but r-b tags can't make it to the commits anymore)

@vbabka @ljs

right, at this stage the only way to make it to a commit is review and write a bugfix for them!

@hyeyoo @vbabka the instinct towards amazing new features is often a bit misplaced anyway, wait until you find yourself reviewing a junior dev's attempt at something 'amazing' :>)

I think I had a similar experience myself in the past...on the 'junior dev' side lol
Now I try to do something reasonable instead of "amazing" new stuff

@hyeyoo @vbabka you're a great kernel dev, I'm very impressed with you. You're absolutely not junior

@hyeyoo @vbabka later the 'big fancy series' thing becomes an issue of 'oh shit now _I_ have to fucking test everything and think about all the unforeseen circumstances and edge cases' :P
