Kernel (and kernel headers) linux-headers-3.13.0-100-generic was released 
in response to CVE 2016-5195

It is then unfortunate that customers upgrading urgently to kernel
3.13.0-100-generic in Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS can not rebuild some customer-
specific drivers because of the syntax error in this Makefile :-(
