The 2.2.11 patch will work with kernels up to 2.2.13. There is a patch for
2.2.14 that applies cleanly, and can be found at
http://www.redhat.com/~mingo/ This patch will also apply to the 2.2.15
kernel, but I believe that it will have 1 reject that you'll have to correct
manually. Note that I haven't actually tried that one, but the author of
the HOWTO has.
