They don't even seem to be able to provide patches that work with all
the boards they try to sell, so this little gem isn't really
surprising.. It seems to be natural to have one source tarball (of
about everything) per board, with conflicting patches (and redundant
patches).
Imagine 6000 kernel-source tarballs, each supporting one different device..
