Yes, if that is working the same, I'd prefer the upstream version. It probably
does not matter that much in the arm branch, but generally I think it is better
to stay close to upstream. I see it will need a bit of modification to apply
cleanly but the resulting patch I might ask for inclusion in 2.6.31.y as long
as that is still open.
