There is nothing special in the TEMAC driver that binds it to 2.6.16-rc5.
The patch was generated against and tested with that kernel version. That's all.
The patch will probably not apply cleanly to the more recent kernels. But
otherwise it should work.

In other words, feel free to use that TEMAC patch with the recent kernel.

Thanks,
