GPL diff b/w 4.2.22 and 4.2.23

As described on the GPL page, the GPL contains the software code for stuff NetGear uses in the firmware that is developed by 3rd parties. Nice useful downloads for developers, but it can be nice to compare the differences in 3rd party software code used between different versions of RAIDiator. I wrote a script to do this a while back, and recently ran it to compare the GPL code for 4.2.22 to 4.2.23 (it should be noted that there is heaps of software code not subject to the GPL that is used by RAIDiator and thus is not part of the GPL code and thus won't show up in the comparison below) and have pasted the results of my comparison below:
