I see that the patch has been applied to:
http://www.kernel.org/diff/diffview.cgi?file=/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/next/patch-v2.6.33-rc5-next-20100128.bz2

Does this sort of change ever get backported to earlier kernels officially? Does it get backported by Debian/Ubuntu/Canonical/etc? For instance, will it become available on Ubuntu Karmic (based on 2.6.31)?

If not, is it easy for me to add the patch myself? If this is not the correct place for these questions then please respond here:

Thanks.
