Is there a standard process for getting things added to Fedora's kernel
package.  In particular, I'm interested in the hdaps modules (IBM's Hard
Drive Active Protection System).  I believe it has been in the stable
kernel since 2.6.14.

Or, am I just thinking about this wrong.  Do uncommon modules not go in
the kernel package?  Do they usually get packaged separately?

The normal approach is "get things upstream". Then, davej tends to turnon new drivers as they appear. In this specific case, it looks likehdaps is already being built and included in the kernel
