I started building it because several new Dell machines did not work with the driver in 3.4.x or 3.10.x kernels. Not sure why, but there were issues and this solved them, so I would say it is required. There is also in kernel mods to get newer bn* drivers as well that is patched into the 3.10.x kernel as patches. Thanks, Johnny Hughes
