distro kernel misconceptions.

| Talking with quite a few people at OLS last week, it seems there are
| still quite a few misconceptions about just how patched various
| kernels were throughout the history of Red Hat. One particularly
| egregious statement I heard was "Early Red Hat kernels had
| ~2000 patches".

In a different context, Microsoft quantified patches in a silly way. Linux is
still far more secure and SELinux features come to the standards
distributions.

| SELinux offers strict but sometimes difficult-to-manage security.
