You'll have to help me a bit.

1) When I read this PR, it is not clear to me which of the suggested 
patches have to be applied.

2) Is there a procedure / tool to extract the diffs from the pr. I know 
I'll have to use the patch program to apply them. But I do hope that 
there is somewhere a short description of the way to proceed. I've been 
browsing the manual and the developers handbook, but didn't find what I 
was looking for.

3) Is it ok if I apply these patches to my freshly installed 4.7-RELEASE 
kernel sources? Not having IP connectivity kind of complicates things a 
bit ;-)
