Looking at what's been uploaded to Ubuntu. I noticed that Quantal has the 3.5 kernel.

So I've created a patch that takes all the modules from Quantal and upgrades the Precise ones. I've done a diff of the modules folders from the Precise packaging and the Quantal packaging (excluding the FreeBSD and solaris folders, because we don't use them)

This time there is no backporting any packaging, just cherry-picking the modules from Quantal.
