	Those are files from the actual utilities?  I.e. the
source code for the utilities is stored in the kernel tree?  That the
support routines for the utilities have changes doesn't imply that
one would expect to find source-changes for the utils there unless
the utils are in the kernel tree -- but I don't think so(?)  Like the
'util-linux' utils, I have the impression they are stored outside of
the kernel tree.

	No need to answer to tell me the util sources are not stored
in the kernel (if that's the case), as that's my current "world view" :-).
But if I need to update my current world view (again), I hope you'll
_gently_ let me know. :-)
