and patch-3.18.44-vs2.3.7.5.diff applies to 3.18.53 [1] too with no
'FAILED|fuzz' [2].
[1] which i see is finally available as a tarball/patch on kernel.org;
i got it out of the linux-stable git repo when gkh first published
it earlier this week
[2] except for patching the Makefile with its embedded incremented
version number which always fails, of course
i've tested 3.18.53-vs2.3.7.5 and staged it and will reboot to it
later this week (though separate from the ubuntu kernel security
updates everywhere else; how far away are we from the "common man"
creating live kernel updates? ;).
