You're missing the point completely. Andrei don't won't to compile the
kernel, he wants to get this patch with the standard squeeze kernel.
Andrei, you probably should write to debian-kernel mailing list or
fill a bug against linux-image-2.6 package in Debian BTS (then
debian-kernel will get a CC AFAIK). If you'll get no response there
try to raise the discussion at debian-devel (quite an active mailing
list).
