Humm in this case stable-2.3 should had a #warning saying it support kernels up to 3.11 only. As it does not state it somewhere it seems like a fix for me. I will end doing the backport in this case, but it is something which could be fixed for 2.4 than and include such warning. -- Otavio Salvador O.S.
