Unfortunately the patch does not apply to the 6.8.0 driver we have in
Hardy.
I had a go at making it fit 6.8.0 this evening. Unfortunately some of
the patch depends on code not present in 6.8.0 and that, if ported,
wouldn't be viable to include in Hardy. (Indeed, the size of the patch
even without the dependent code is beyond what would likely be
acceptable by the SRU team.)
Instead, I think the better approach is to wait until the next release
of the driver (6.8.1 or 6.9.0 or whatever) and then pull it in via
hardy-backports.
