Personally I'll probably stay on 3.14 until 4.4 comes out, but the patch seems 
to make huge sense generally, given the 1 million in 8 second printk's I 
experienced :)

My 3 servers with the patch applied to 3.14.56 run rock solid so far (but the 
issue I had manifested only after 22 days of uptime, on one of them)

The cited commit from mainline applied nicely with some offset to 3.14.56, so 
I think you could just pull it down to all stable kernels.

best regards
  Patrick
