MDS and OSS kernels *are* patched.  My 1.6.5 here does not report it's
patchless:

lustre: 1.6.5
kernel: 47
build:  1.6.5-19691231190000-PRISTINE-.cache.OLDRPMS.20080513015618.linux-smp-2.6.9-67.0.7.EL_lustre.1.6.5.i686-2.6.9-67.0.7.EL_lustre.1.6.5smp

If you are using our kernel on your MDS/OSS and it's reporting
patchless, this indeed is a bug.  Could you please search our bugzilla
to see if there is a similar bug and if not found, file a bug in our
bugzilla about it?
