I'd like to NMU, it's just a time issue, and the fact that I've never done a
kernel patch package before, and don't want to stuff around with it and
potentially break things for people (not that the current package is of any
use to anyone, I'll admit).
A correct patch is in the BTS, put there by me, so if anyone else is
interested and has the time and knowledge to do it, it should be a fairly
simple NMU. Absent any interest at all in it, I'd say just remove it, at
least from testing.
