  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Current Ubuntu 8.0.6-1ubuntu3 carries:

  - d/p/0003-Fix-infinite-loop-during-module-symbols-initialization.patch
    Resolves an issue where gap regions between modules causes an infinite
    loop that prevents crash from loading

  Can be dropped. Is resolved by the update to upstream 9.0.1.

  - d/p/0004-Fix-the-failing-of-cmd-files-for-v6.14-rc1-kernel.patch: Fix cmd
    files by matching rename of kernel struct member d_iname to d_shortname

  Can be dropped. Is resolved by the update to upstream 9.0.1.

  - d/t/live: If the "live" autopkgtest fails with a recommendation to
    try /proc/kcore instead of the default, attempt that before
    failing the test. LP 1858958.
    last upload.
  - d/t/live: Fix logic issue in "live" autopkgtest introduced in the
  - d/t/live: Fix test, as if will return 0 when no cases were true.
  - d/t/control: Run autopkg test with allow-stderr.

  Can be dropped. Going forward, we want autopkgtest to fail in this
  case so that we know we have to update crash.

  - d/t/control: Add linux-libc-dev dependency for the autopkg test.
    This package gets usually broken with kernel upgrades, so let it
    already show in the autopkg test.

  Can be dropped. Not sure what this is really for but from the
  description it sounds like a kernel issue so shouldn't be tested here?
  This change was introduced in Impish, so is quite old and like no
  longer relevant.

  - Pass CFLAGS when building extensions.

  Can be dropped. Is resolved by the update to upstream 9.0.1.
