All they needed as a mandatory kernel patch was the distributed flock,
which was there since 2.6.9 or so.

Or do you mean that the GFS' kernel support (which was in these
packages) is going to become a patch to the kernel? IMHO it was
cleaner as an external kernel module solution and would also give a
nicer layering idiom to RHEL4 w/o having to replace the kernel.
