Subject: bugfix for scripts/patch-kernel in 2.6 sublevel stepping
Date: Mon, 04 Aug 2008 00:00:30 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <48961C6E.50000@iki.fi> (raw)
Hi,
scripts/patch-kernel script can't patch a tree, say, from 2.6.25 to
2.6.26.1, because of a wrong comparison in context of patching 2.6.x
base. Following patch has a fix for it.
