I disagree: you fix debian code but upstream kernel is also affected.
I wanted to compile the upstream 4.4.26 for the COW fixe and cannot.
Please revert.

You should be noted that building kernel from vanilla source isn't
good idea in Debian.

Except I have been doing this for nearly 10 years...

I don't see any 4.4 branch in Debian sources, but you may use git tag
"debian/4.4.6-1" as base for your own work/fork.

I'm not using debian kernel nor want to use them. I want a compiler able to compile upstream code without modifications.

And I want LTS kernel to get fixes as soon as they appear without being forced to move to non LTS versions.
