I'm often backporting patches to older kernels and I think the churn argument 
has not been emphasized enough. Backporting patches is a normal aspect of a 
product lifecycle since a kernel version is chosen when development of a 
product starts and bugfixes are cherry-picked from upstream selectively.

Thanks,
