To be clear, the patch attached here was submitted upstream but has not yet been accepted. We would much rather not carry code which may not make it in that form in the official kernels as it makes maintenance much much harder. It would help if someone could follow up on the email thread and ask what happened to the patch as it seems to be missing from the maintainer trees.
