Linux 3.12-rc3 Kernel Released

The third release candidate for the Linux 3.12 kernel is now available.

Linus Torvalds announced to the kernel mailing list on Sunday that Linux 3.12-rc3 is now available. Being midway through the development cycle and well past the merge window, the 3.12-rc3 changes aren't too exciting but mostly just bug-fixes scattered throughout the kernel.
