The dataset does not appear to discuss the lifecycle of Linux distributions taking the security patches from upstream, nor the update process for all of the downstream distributions.
Something that's been widely discussed elsewhere is how often security issues are silently fixed in Linus's repo and therefore not picked up by distributions for their stable/LTS releases.
I buy the immediacy of patches if you compile your own kernel from the latest kernel.org sources, not if you're relying on distributions.
