Comment 81 for bug 1445195

I was able to create a Precise test kernel with the request patches. The test kernel can be downloaded from:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1445195/precise/

There were quite a few prerequisites required to get the requested patches into Precise. Due to this, these may be too many changes for an SRU. In that case, the lts-backport kernel would have to be used with Precise.

The following is a list of the needed prerequisites(Note the SHA1 is not the upstream SHA1, but subject is the same as upstream):
