Patches should be simple as applying to even very old drm. There hasn't been much changes in UMS code path. But size of changes is quite large. Dave already commented that he doesn't want to push it to stable because of invasive changes. (at least without extensive testing)

But if any distro maintainer wants to backport changes to the stable kernel commits in Linus' tree are

7a9f0dd9c49425e2b0e39ada4757bc7a38c84873 drm: Add generic multipart buffer.
b4fe945405e477cded91772b4fec854705443dd5 drm/radeon: Fix memory allocation failures in the preKMS command stream checking.
55a5cb5d594c18b3147a2288b00ea359c1a38cf8 drm/radeon: Fix printf type warning in 64bit system.
