[ANN] U-Boot v2026.01-rc2 released

[Tom Rini]

Hey all,

So it's release day and I have tagged and pushed things out. Looking at
my own queue, I see some small changes I can still pull in (spelling
fixes, Kconfig dependency fixes and so on), but anything else is for
-next now. And there will be some bigger sized things going to -next,
including updating our host containers and updating LLVM.

We're continuing with a community meeting following the release and the
calendar link is

and once again this is the same time as the previous meeting. The
meeting details itself are:

In terms of a rough changelog:
- Pulled in more fixes for issues found by smatch.
- More platform updates that were outstanding after -rc1.
  - We now have QEMU for testing transfer list support so vexpress_fvp
    has been taken out of Gitlab CI where it was failing due to race
    condtions for console quite often.
- Subsystem updates (MMC, UFS, USB, board extensions support, UEFI, DFU,
  documentation)
- Falcon mode support for secure platforms
- We can use clang to build on 64bit ARM platforms again (and there's
  some further fixes here to pull in).

I continue to plan to do an rc release every two weeks and the final
release will be 05 January 2026.

Thanks all!
