When a user backports a driver from a new kernel (as detailed here), does this backport need to be re-applied each time the kernel updates, e.g. if there was an automatic security update from kernel version 3.8.0-34-generic
to 3.8.0-35-generic
, would this break the user's backport? and thus require the user to reapply the backport?
(hence if the backport was to make wifi work, the wifi could die after an automatic kernel upgrade)
