The -mm patches apply on top of a clean 2.6.11. They *should* contain all the 2.6.11.4 fixes, because Andrew includes the bk-linus.patch in -mm, and the 2.6.x.y policy is that the patch (or a variant thereof) already be in upstream. So Linus's tree has to have it in it, so the -mm tree should have it. If you find something that's in 2.6.x.y that *isn't* in a subsequently released -mm, I suggest you contact Greg, Linus, and Andrew, as it means we've collectively borked something...
