Mantic and Noble have 0.44-1ubuntu1, which has this patch applied, and they also run kernel 6.5 at the moment, so they were affected.

Lunar is on kernel 6.2, so not affected, nor is jammy. This really only applies to users who are running a non-distro kernel in lunar or earlier.

Even though the patch looks safe and has #ifdefs for the specific affected kernel version, I'm not sure we should SRU this to the stable releases which, on the shipped kernel, are not affected. This would update every user of tp-smapi, including the ones not affected by this build problem.

Is there an expectation that jammy will get a 6.4 or higher kernel at some point, perhaps via hwe? Currently the hwe kernel for jammy is 6.2 if I'm not mistaken.
