If they're going to supply a non-free kernel module, they'll have to deal with the problems.
I suppose so, but "upstream" in this case is a hardware vendor, who is much less motivated to keep supporting a 10-year-old card than they are to sell new hardware. The last update to the module source was around March of 2016. Unfortunately telephony cards in general are way overpriced for what they do. Maybe patents involved? But this was a $600 PCI card ten years ago, I can't afford to just junk it now. If it weren't so expensive to replace, I wouldn't even think of trying to keep running hardware this old.
I guess I can file a support ticket with Digium, but I doubt I'll get much of a helpful response. I was just sort of hoping against hope that somebody had seen this and knew of a workaround.

A Fedora-related question is wondering whether I can upgrade to F25 and still keep running an F24 kernel.
