Excuse my ignorance : what are those patches supposed to do exactly ?

I am running a compaq presario + dvd with rh 6.1 , kernel 2.2.13 and I don't 
experience 
any trouble with the dvd used as a cdrom. Obviouly I cannot use the dvd itself (as 
said 
in a previous thread). So what are those patches for ?
