The last skas3 patch that I saw on the UML-devel mailing list was for
2.6.24-rc7 and didn't receive any feedback.

Skas4 is still too experimental and anyway the plan is to push it to the
upstream kernel rather than keeping it as a separate patch.

@debian-release:
Maybe it's time to remove the {linux,kernel}-patch-skas packages?
Would this require a release note?
