Some development and patches may exist only in the Ubuntu kernels,
the patches are managed via the Ubuntu kernel team's launchpad.net trees
at https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/+git; e.g. to check out the
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (bionic) kernel tree, do
```
git clone https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/bionic
