The two patches are upstream, so they can be dropped.
From NEWS.md:
Version 1.6.12
- Backported CCAT fixes from Beckhoff
Version 1.6.11
- Protect datagram receiving mechanism against re-ordering
- Prevent creating datagrams that are too large for one frame
- Reacted to stmmac API changed during Linux 6.12
- Adapted debug ring to kernel 5.6+ time API changes
- Use str.read() to read into char* (deprecated in C++20)
- Unload `ec_bhf` before loading CCAT
- Added cpplint checks in pre-commit and CI tests.
- Improved and formatted markdown documents and added pre-commit checks
Version 1.6.10
- Added RasPi 5 macb (Cadence GEM / RP1) driver for kernel 6.18.
- Added igb and igc for kernel 6.8
- Security fixes against malicious subdevices
- Protected `rec_size` calculation in FoE.
- Check for malicious EoE frame details.
- Avoid writing invalid MAC onto r8169 NIC on removal
- Fixed insufficient re-allocation of SoE request buffer.
Version 1.6.9
- Protect datagram injection mechanism against re-ordering.
- Fixed for genet and igb drivers for openSUSE Leap 16.0 kernel 6.12.
- tty: Implemented new timer interface since kernel 6.15.
- Do not require .config to exist in kernel sources.
- Fix: Attach slaves before calculating DCs.
- Discard EoE traffic in CoE statemachine, if EoE is disabled.
- Support for Linux 6.19
- Added `--with-kmod-dir` and `--with-ip-cmd` configuration switches
to specify the paths of the tools used in the `ethercatctl` script.
- Changed the default path of the `ip` command to `/sbin/ip`.
