It didn't come from PatchList.txt.  It came from me tracking every
patch down every month and giving the reasoning.  PatchList.txt was
updated after the last report I sent out to try and avoid having to
redo that every time.  Except it's easy to forget to update
PatchList.txt.

I'd prefer to keep it in the patch file itself (not PatchList.txt, but
as fields in the acutal .patch file).  I'll think up what I'd like to
see and post an example format for discussion.

Kyle's idea of automating the patch addition to kernel.spec seems good.
