+Note: Debian carefully tracks all known security issues across every
+linux kernel package in all releases under active security support.
+However, given the high frequency at which low-severity security
+issues are discovered in the kernel and the resource requirements of
+doing an update, updates for lower priority issues will normally not
+be released for all kernels at the same time. Rather, they will be
+released in a staggered or "leap-frog" fashion.
