Others agreed that, after Mellanox requested this package to be merged with upstream, the best approach for SRU' ing this is to sync with latest version. Versions contained in T/V/W are old enough not to work with HWE kernels. Since Debian & Xenial are already sync'ed with 4.1.0 I thought on backporting Xenial to Trusty, Vivid & Wily.
I'm attaching debdiffs that change version existent in T/V/W to Xenial.
