The commit was at one point applied upstream, but it seems it caused problems and was later reverted in commit 00c611def8748a0a1cf1d31842e49b42dfdb3de1. Your best bet is likely to file a new bug at bugzilla.kernel.org (developers may be ignoring new comments on closed bug reports).
I fail to see the relevance of the link to debian's acpi-support package.
