+'MUSTARD' patches. Fedora local patches that are very unlikely to go upstream.

+* linux-2.6-32bit-mmap-exec-randomization.patch
+ One half of the remaining exec-shield diff.
+ - davej bugged Ingo again on Jun 17 2011 about upstreaming, no response.
+ - mailed Linus asking for opinions in August 2011. He still hates it.
+ "Ugh. Certainly not in this form. That patch is just disgusting." ..
+ "I think that with NX and now SMEP, if you really care about security,
+ you'd better be using a CPU that supports 64-bit operations anyway."
+ As well as the increased randomisation, there's a key part of this patch
+ that means that DSOs get loaded in the ASCII-Armor area on 32bit.
+ (Addresses have topmost byte == 0)
+ See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=734239
+
+* linux-2.6-i386-nx-emulation.patch
+ The ugly segment hack part of exec-shield that Linus hates.
+ Unlikely to ever go upstream.

+ Unlikely to go upstream.

+
+* linux-2.6-e1000-ich9-montevina.patch
+ Intel hates it. Davej has an SDV that needs it.
+ Low maintenence, and worth hanging onto until it gets replaced
+ with something that fails in a different way.
+
+* utrace.patch
+ Hopefully it'll die when uprobes gets upstream.

+
+* modules-extra: Do a few more things to make it a bit more robust.
+ - Allow for comments in the mod-extra.list file.
+ - Don't fail the build if a module is listed but not built (maybe).
+ - See if it can be tied into Kconfig instead of module names.
+
+* investigate gzip modules. Everything should support this now?
+ Looks like about 70M savings per kernel installed.
