Sorry for the long delay.
I've made a backport with all relevant patches I could find from the
3.0.y tree and put the patches and a built package at
http://alioth.debian.org/~jrnieder-guest/temp/driver-test/
Patches are against 2.6.32.y. The most notable missing patch is the
BKL conversion --- for Debian squeeze it seems safest to just keep
using the BKL. I'd be happy for any thoughts you have.
Thanks,
Jonathan
