Even if you are right (which I doubt), you didn't hear about Debian or
Gentoo patched kernels, for example. Did you?

They are patched, though.

Debian kernel patches

Posted Jul 22, 2004 11:49 UTC (Thu) by shapr (subscriber, #9077) [Link]

Debian kernel images are built from the kernel-tree-2.x.x package, which depends on the kernel-source-2.x.x and kernel-patch-debian-2.x.x packages.

I build my own kernels with kernel-patch-debian-2.x.x as well, but often with additional kernel-patch packages and custom settings for my hardware.
