Comment

The change is a straightforward upstream version bump in .SRCINFO from Linux v7.2-rc5 to v7.2-rc6, with the corresponding source checksum updated. The source remains the official kernel.org git repository over HTTPS, and there are no new build steps, scripts, binaries, or privilege-related artifacts introduced by this diff. No security red flags are evident in the provided hunk.

Comment

The change only bumps the upstream kernel tag/version from v7.2-rc5 to v7.2-rc6 in PKGBUILD. No new sources, scripts, patches, dependencies, or packaging behavior are introduced, and there are no signs of network, privilege, or persistence-related changes in this diff hunk. Security impact is negligible based on the provided change.

Comment

The change is a routine upstream version bump from v7.2-rc5 to v7.2-rc6 with the corresponding source checksum update. I do not see any new sources, build-time network access, install-script changes, privilege escalation, or packaging red flags in this diff. The modified checksum is expected for the new tarball and there are no signs of tampering in the PKGBUILD itself.
