@matt I noticed that Kevin's patches were accepted for the next 3.7 kernel release.
I also noticed that a fedora maintainer backported Kevin's patches to the next Fedora release. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=812111 I have not seen any activity by Ubuntu maintainers to backport the patches, so I doubt they will be integrated into the Ubuntu train any time soon.
