So the problem is that you still haven't actually manage to produce a
patch for the problem in the form required by the stable tree as listed
in

Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt

If you can't follow the guide, perhaps an example would work, so as a
one time thing, I'll show you what such a patch should look like
according to the rules of the stable kernel in reply to this email
