sorry for my late reply, we had some delays in compiling and deploying the kernel. I took the diffs from the Website and created a .patch-File which then could be applied to to the vanilla 2.6.35.7-Kernel-Source without issues - is there a more efficient way to retrieve all the diffs for a commit in one file?

Sure, you can get the whole patch as-is via the web interface.

This is the patch you want: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=...

Quick question: now that the patch is in Linus' kernel tree, does this mean it will appear in a mainline kernel release soon? How does that process work?

It has been merged in Linus' tree after 2.6.36 was released and it was already present in 2.6.37-rc1, so 2.6.37 will be the first stable release with the patch (and IPv6 support in tproxy) included. Cheers, Krisztian
