Update to the faux123 issue.

He "created" a branch in his repo for source, but the source/commits in
this "branch" are not remotely close to samsung's "MKG" source, they the
branch is named "KK-MKG", and if you view his "activity" on github, he has
not pust any commits after creating the branch..

faux123 <https://github.com/faux123> created branch
kk_MKG<https://github.com/faux123/jflte_xxx/tree/kk_MKG>at
faux123/jflte_xxx <https://github.com/faux123/jflte_xxx>
 7 hours ago
as viewed at https://github.com/faux123?tab=activity



the branch was created 7 hours ago as of the time of this email, his kernel
was posted on twitter 22 hours ago, and he admitted that he posted his
kernel on xda, while source was still uploading to github.   7 hours later
- the source isnt uploaded...

as of now, 11/30/2013 - 1147pm CA time, his repo is still not current.

Just a FYI...
