Do all of the above patches apply cleanly? Do they need to be backported? Have you tested that? Do you have such a series of patches so we can compare them? The patch below is not in any format that I can take it in. ALso, 95% of the times we take a patch that is different from what is upstream will have bugs and problems over time because of that. So I always want to take the original upstream patches instead if at all possible. So I need a lot more information here in order to try to determine this, sorry. thanks, greg k-h
