This should be Upstream-Status I guess to match other patches that
said there are few more anomalies

meta/recipes-devtools/dosfstools/dosfstools/dosfstools-2.10-kernel-2.6.patch:
"Upstream Status"
meta/recipes-devtools/btrfs-tools/btrfs-tools/fix_use_of_gcc.patch:UpstreamStatus:
Pending
meta/recipes-devtools/elfutils/elfutils/fix_for_gcc-4.7.patch:UpstreamStatus:
pending
