That's not correct. The patch actually rips out the whole "promo"
subsystem, including the background downloading mechanism and click
reporting.

The comment you are referring to in the upstream bugtracker was just
mentioning that the proposed solution - disabling the promo display on
the new tab page via preferences - does not prevent downloading.

The patch removes all of it.
