I believe he's correct. From the description of linux-patch-debian-2.6.22: > Description: Debian patches to version 2.6.22 of the Linux kernel > This package includes the patches used to produce the prepackaged > linux-source-2.6.22 package, as well as architecture-specific patches.

So the prepackaged kernel source has already been patched. The patch has been applied against the mentioned Debian tarball. All this is AFAICT.
