Thanks Thomas,
but I have a problem applying the patch.
I get lots of ignored hunks and it ends and fails with:

2 out of 2 hunks ignored -- saving rejects to file sound/soc/codecs/wm8990.c.rej
patching file virt/kvm/kvm_main.c

I tried to build with my usual script, which just does:
patch -Np1 -i ../patch-2.6.33.6-rt26

Before that it applies the .6 patch, with the same command, without any hickup.
I don't know whether something is wrong with the patch or whether I did
something wrong.
