Hi!

What kind of patches are or should be safe to apply to vanilla kernel tree?
I guess driver updates and small security fixes should not be a problem for
xen..

1. Extract vanilla kernel (2.6.11)
2. Apply patches (2.6.11.3)
3. Run mkbuildtree

It looks like above steps should be OK. Just asking to be sure :)

Patches which touch arch/ might be a problem ?

Thanks!
