You got 2 patch segment failures, and several ones which had to be offset.
The latter are nothing to worry about.  The two failures are important,
however.  The reason for these changes is that the kernel you have applied
my patch against isn't the same as what Konrad gave me.

If you give me a different tarball for a different centos/rhel kernel, I'll
be happy to produce a clean patch for that one as well.

Cheers,
Erez.
