Not really.

 1) Get the diffs.

	You will need a CVS repository, or use the cvsweb interface
	at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi to extract the diffs.
	Note that mlx.c, mlx_disk.c, mlx_pci.c and mlxvar.h all changed
	in this fix.

 2) Apply the diffs.

	Note that if you cut-and-paste from your browser, you may get 
	diffs that contain corrupted whitespace.  Always save them 
	directly to a file.

 3) Recompile your kernel.

	... or if you are using the module, recompile the mlx module.
