Hi, Thanks for your reply. Currently I'm looking for patches that were used to be applied on older (stable) releases, for back-porting purpose. If you have new patches that no one is using to apply to the older releases, that would be great too.
I took the available patches from kernel.org. According to my understanding, patch-2.6.27.59 consists of all the patches that should be applied on version 2.6.27.59. Am I correct on this assumption?
