Dear Christopher M. Penalver, why did you remove the Patch from Roman Lenskij?
It could be a good alternative instead of compiling the whole Kernel with the existing Patch
until the solution is backported to older Kernel- versions.

btw: thanks to all that helped to bring the solution into the newest
kernels :)
