I'm not sure this patch will be included in discover-data-1.
>From apt-cache show discover-data :

The Linux kernel module information corresponds to Linux 2.2.20; module
names for Linux 2.4.x are also provided in many cases for the convenience
of 2.4.x users, but only where they do not conflict with 2.2.20 module
names.

But discover2 is out, and we can hope it will be packaged very soon.
Or we need to have a special pci.lst for kernel 2.4 or use 
/usr/share/hwdata/pcitable for hwdata package.
