i wonder if 3.16.7 contains all the 3.16.3 CVE-fixes from
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=587751 and the
previous 3.16.6 ones from Fedora because
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/ChangeLog-3.16.7 dont
mention them?

They weren't added upstream, which is why the upstream ChangeLog doesn't
list them.  Sometimes the CVE information for a patch isn't listed there
anyway.  They're still in the Fedora kernel build of the same as
add-on patches. This happens quite frequently

thanks for feedback

good to know - sadly that the upstream changelog don't start with a seperate paragraph listing fixed CVE's independent of the commit-log
