Does a complete list of security fixes in the 2.2.x series exist
somewhere? Recently, we faced a security-related kernel bug and
discovered that it was silently fixed somewhere around 2.2.1x. It
would have been nice if there was some kind of ChangeLog which listed
such fixes. Alan Cox's "release notes" mention most fixes, but they
are remarkably terse regarding security fixes. Is this intentional?
