Given that you mention you're not running a Debian kernel at all

how much effort we'll want to put into it if it turns out to not
work on ev5, but it will still be good to know -- and if the kernel
*does* work for you, that's a good reason to find a solution other
than switching the kernel to build ev56 code. :)

It should work, the code is guarded to be only executed on ev56+. See
also the thread

Yes, it does seem to work. I'm running linux-image-2.6.18-1-alpha-generic
now, and haven't seen anything blatantly broken.
