The patch isn't necessary on release 96, unless people are using a release 96 driver with G80 or newer hardware. The vulnerability is only exploitable on G80 or newer.

Unfortunately, we've discovered some issues with the patch as provided during our extended testing: on some GPUs, blacklisting the mapping ranges that are currently in the patch breaks OpenGL. We're looking into the best way to ensure that exploitable mappings are forbidden while maintaining compatibility across our full line of supported GPUs.
