According to http://www.backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=contribute
backports are built only for packages that are in testing. kernel 2.6.22 is
not yet in testing. Only 2.6.21 is in testing. That might be the reason why
you cannot find any backports for 2.6.22. Sorry if you are already aware of
this criterion.
