I know about linux-mips, but I have not get answer from that for two
days! Maybe I write not complete message.
I will try Ralf Baechles diff and send the result a bit later.
Information about kernel sources (how can I forgot this!!):
   Version: linux-2.6.12-rc1-mipscvs-20050403 (this is tar-s full
   name). So I think this kernel is from linux-mips cvs repositary.
   It was downloaded from http://www.student.tue.nl/Q/t.f.a.wilms/adm5120/

Here is mcheck with respect to your patch:
