Sorry, I don't do a lot of kernel patches, except for XFS and a really small
patch for extendes boot command lines. You will have to wait until the modules
make it in the official kernel. Usually, there is a good reason if this has
not happened yet.
If you contribute a Debian package that generates a single module and
installs into the standard module tree, that would be OK, I think.
