There's something else a forgot to mention, which is the fact that the bug
reports were for kernel 3.2.14.  So you may want to update the
"Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" on commit 487790f27df9bb27d3400486bd021dd59edc7589
to include at least this version.

There are two another patches we have applied that are present in mainline
but haven't made its way into stable:
 - 14977489ffdb80d4caf5a184ba41b23b02fbacd9
 - 96dcadc2fdd111dca90d559f189a30c65394451a
