Features like ghosting are only available through the kernel patch, which
is even not available in the autofs package. The most user-friendly way
to provide it would be in a specific package, possibly built with the help
of dh-kpatches.

In general, that kind of thing does not make sense as a separate patch;
kernel patch packages are for stuff that won't make it into mainline (yet)
for various reasons, not for bugfixes for current kernel functionality. In
other words, any requests for kernel patch updates should be filed as bugs
against the appropriate kernel package.
Closing this bug. :-)
