I didn't see anything that would indicate it (the patch) would work with kernel 2.6.9. I was hoping I didn't have to split up my kernel versions, for example a supported CentOS kernel for servers and a unsupported kernel for the clients that have the lastest and greatest hardware. I was going to give 2.6.9 a quick try and if that didn't work, then go to 2.6.18 which is the base for CentOS 5.
I took a quick look at the 2.6.9 source code. That patch would not work for this kernel.
I also checked the Centos 5 kernel (2.6.18-8.x). The patch you referred to will not work there either. However, I saw a test kernel available from upstream that already has that fix applied. So, there is some good chance that CentOS 5.1 will have it. Given the fact you need it by early September, this may not work out either.
