As others have mentioned elsewhere I think this would be much nicer if 
each patch was added to the SRC_URI in the same commit which introduces 
the patch.

In addition, I believe it would also make sense to have 2 patches for 
the same CVE applied at once?

Ideally this series would be 11 patches, each of which updated SRC_URI 
and added the patch files to fix a single CVE.

What do you think? I am more than happy to take this series and make the 
suggested change (11 commits, each editing SRC_URI) myself before 
requesting my fido-next branch be merged?

Thanks,

Joshua
