After fixing some wrongly auto-generated includes, I could see that there were 2 approaches for bringing 1.6.5 behavior to 1.6.1: 1) Remove "STRUCT_TASK_STRUCT_HAS_CRED" define.

Removing this would make openafs behave like it used to in the past (older kernels from 2.6.x) and would imply fixing all "current_task"->cred structure (changing upstream code on that specific version). Of course, after this, even more changes would be expected. -> not a good approach 2) Cherry-pick code from 1.6.5 to 1.6.1. There are 398 commits between this two versions and, taking in consideration only dkms module, this could be a reasonable direction. The problem is that since there are a huge amount of changes in the kernel structures for process, sched, security (between v3.2 and v3.11) the changes wouldn't be acceptable on SRU. Some of needed changes would be: dentry_open new prototype, kmap_atomic new prototype, vmtruncated deprecated, task_struct cred session_keyring location, new proc_create function on module, and so on... -> not a good approach also IMHO backporting OpenAFS from trusty to precise (-backports) would be the best in this case and probably meet with customers/users requirement/expectation (just like Micheal pointed out).

The out-of-tree OpenAFS kernel module needs to be upgraded to support kernel 3.8. This happened before for the backported Quantal kernel 3.5 (bug 1015925), but this time so many patches are needed that it’s less risky to take a new upstream stable release, which is already well- tested, than to try to decide which patches to cherry-pick.
