Sorry, if you extract the source rpm you should get the patched
sources... Aside from a few patches to mm/mmap for execshield, mm/* is
otherwise untouched from the latest stable 2.6.35 kernels.

If you git clone git://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/kernel and check out the
origin/f14/master branch, it has all the patches we apply (based on the
'ApplyPatch' lines in kernel.spec


Hrm, I don't think it is, I think the ones with '?' are just artifacts
because we don't have a proper unwinder. Oh! Thanks! I just found a bug
in our configs... We don't have CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER set because
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL got unset in the 'production' configs... I'll fix
that up.


Yeah, I am a bit surprised as well. Luke seems to have quite a large
machine... I haven't seen any kswapd lockups there on my 18G machine
using the same kernel. :< (Possibly it's just not stressed enough
though.)

Thanks for looking into this!
