    getting those fixes is simply bumping the kernel build to the latest patch level, the distros must do it in a timely manner. also, roughly only 10% of the affected files are compiled into a kernel image; from this number i would say only 4 needs attention per week. But again, the reasonable approach is simply building the latest patch version
