Bah - actually I _did_ update the patch, but in a different tree:

http://git.armlinux.org.uk/cgit/linux-arm.git/commit/?h=net-queue&id=2ee2b1d5f0f8cee7dd748cfae9c20af429d5a4c2

I'm now looking at this wondering what updates were made in each tree
and therefore what I need to pass across between the two trees...
