Well, on Linux Mama the 2.1.x patches are no longer been maintained and
most of the patches there call themself a bugfix. But the idea of my
patches archive isn't to have a collection of hotfixes - this patches
should do real enhancements to the linux kernel like incraseing a
kernel hardlimit, adding RT sheduling, ....
This are thinks that can't be done by simple configure options or
becouse linus does not like to have it in the tree itself. But if we
ship this patches together with the kernel and let the user know that
this are 3rd party patches (not checked and commited by linus) so it's
up to him/her to use this features or not. The patches themself have there
own maintainer - and if linus changes something big in the kernel so it's
up to this maintainers to update their patches.
