At the end of March, Greg Kroah-Hartman released three new maintenance updates for the long-term supported Linux 4.9 and 4.4 kernel series, as well as the latest stable Linux 4.10 kernel branch.

Linux 4.10.8, 4.9.20 LTS and 4.4.59 LTS kernels are out, and they come only one day after their previous maintenance updates, which means that all of them are small patches addressing a few bugs that needed to be fixed urgently. Of course, users are urged to update their systems to these new versions as soon as possible.

Looking at their appended shortlogs, we can notice that Linux kernel 4.10.8 changes a total of 22 files, with 72 insertions and 79 deletions, Linux kernel 4.9.20 LTS changes 20 files, with 63 insertions and 121 deletions, and Linux kernel 4.4.59 LTS changes only 18 files, with 57 insertions and 135 deletions.
