It is fixed, there is a 301 commit pushed, and it should be cleaner
going forward. The issue was the scripts look at marker for the
upstream release bits, and that ignored sublevel because sublevel was
not necessary for rawhide/linus tree. I have changed the branch so
that marker considers sublevel as well, and things should be cleaner
going forward. Note, I will not be doing a 301 build because the code
is the same, it just moved the stable patch bits from our patch to the
upstream tarball.
