So we actually did pick up the entire 14 patch series in Fedora on top of
3.10.10 and 3.11 to fix the CVEs.  It's broken things for at least two
users.  One person's touchpad is now detected as a mouse with the error:

Sep 04 16:25:14 HP6930p kernel: psmouse serio4: synaptics: 
                  Unable to query device.

The other person reported
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1003998 wherein they say these
patches cause an ODEBUG backtrace and that the trackpoint on a USB keyboard
doesn't work.

> Therefore putting the rest on hold now, and waiting for v2.

Ideas on exactly what might cause these issues would be good to know.
