Re: 4.4.4-26 with XSA-226, 227, 230 in centos-virt-testing

Kevin has been rolling back the security updates to the 4.4 branch.  He
has been working with some of the other distros (debian for sure, and
some others on the xen security list).

I think it is his intention to continue this for as long as he is able
to. (Kevin, chime in if you have a schedule lifetime or EOL in mind)

As long as Kevin (or anyone else) maintains the tree, I am happy to
build them into the repos.
