I really don't see the point in fixing this in hardy, as kernel 2.6.24 is in the archives (which doesn't expose this bug). On the other hand, I believe this is likely a valid SRU, but there are a few outstanding issues:

1) For an SRU, the version should be something like 0.4.15-2.1 rather than 0.4.15.3
2) It would be a lot easier to review a debdiff than the diff.gz. You can generate this with "debdiff orig.dsc new.dsc"
3) Please just s/==/=/ in initd.debian, rather than adding initd.ubuntu: it's hard to see the change easily (this also allows you to drop the Makefile changes, making the diff even smaller)
4) Please update the bug description to contain a clear test case (for both 160104 and 160106), and subscribe ~motu-sru for approval for the stable release update.
5) Once you've received approval from ~motu-sru, if it is still not uploaded, resubscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors to request upload.
