10 Hello Nicolas,
11
12 vanilla-sources, unfortunately, are given same as the kernel upstream,
13 Gentoo is not supporting or adding patches to vanilla-sources.
14 If you have any problem with vanilla-sources please report it to the Kernel
15 upstream not to Gentoo.
16 If you want kernel support from Gentoo kernel team, please switch to
17 gentoo-sources.
