Right. But as I look, it seems to be based on 3.4.11 which doesn't have
recent bug fix and enhances and current 3.4.16 also doesn't include it.

Just out of curiosity.

Is there any rule about update period in long-term kernel?
I mean how often you release long-term kernel.

Is there any rule about update period in LTSI kernel based on long-term kernel?
If I get the answer on above two quesion, I can expect later what LTSI kernel
version include feature I need.

Another question.
For example, There is A feature in mainline and A has no problem but
someone invents new wheel "B" which is better than A so it replace A totally
in recent mainline. As following stable-kernel rule, it's not a real bug fix
so I guess stable kernel will never replace A with B. It means LTSI never get
a chance to use new wheel. Right?

Thanks.
