I think the same arguments we have against patching the kernel to
disable promiscuous mode apply here as well. If RH makes a patched
kernel available, I'm sure we'll include it but we don't (currently)
build custom kernels or maintain our own source.

And of course, that means that you're ignoring the hundreds of people
who use 4.0 or other stuff.
